How to Hyperlink in Slack

Updated on:

Use this interactive demo to learn how to add a clickable hyperlink in Slack messages.

Quick summary

This demo shows how to hyperlink text in Slack by selecting your message text, using the link symbol in the formatting toolbar, and pasting a URL to create a clean, clickable link. Once inserted, you can preview how the hyperlinked text appears and optionally remove the link preview.


Steps

  1. Select the text you want to hyperlink in your Slack message, then click the link symbol in the formatting toolbar.
  2. Paste the URL into the link input field that appears.
  3. Confirm the link to apply it — your hyperlinked text will now appear formatted and clickable in the message composer.
  4. Preview how the hyperlinked text will look once your message is sent.
  5. Optionally, remove the link preview if you prefer to share the link without an expanded URL preview.

📌 Why this matters

Knowing how to hyperlink text in Slack helps teams share URLs cleanly without cluttering messages with long, raw links. Instead of pasting full URLs, users can attach links to descriptive anchor text, making Slack messages easier to read and act on. This feature is especially useful for sharing resources, documents, and references in channels or direct messages where clarity and brevity matter. Mastering Slack hyperlinking improves communication efficiency and keeps conversations organized across teams.
