# Submit requests from Slack
Submit requests via Slack from the Siit App Home, by tagging @Siit in a public channel where it is invited, or by sending the Siit assistant a direct message
### Siit Home
As an employee, you have your own Siit App to manage and submit requests in private.
Into this bot, you will have access to a Home to give you an overview on your requests (the ones that are “*In progress*”, and the one that are “*Resolved*”).
### Find the Siit App in Slack
If you don't see Siit app in the Apps section, you can search Siit and add it. You can also press Cmd + K (Mac) or Ctrl + K (Windows) and type Siit in the quick switcher.
### Tag the @Siit App in a public channel
You can send a message to the @siit assistant in whichever public channel it was already invited to. Simply write `@siit ` and follow the instructions.
### Send Siit assistant a direct message
If you don't want to submit your request in public you can also write a message to the assistant directly.
ℹ️ If you don't see Siit app in the *Apps* section of the sidebar click on “+”, search Siit and add it. You can also press `Cmd + K` (Mac) or `Ctrl + K` (Windows) and type Siit in the quick switcher.
### Use Slack “Actions” in Slack Direct Message

1. Find the message you want to use to submit a request
2. Click on the ∙∙∙ button that appears when you move your mouse over the message
3. From the menu select **Submit request**
4. If you cannot find this action click on **More message actions...** and find **Submit reques**t there

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.siit.io/guides/integrations/integrations-communication/slack-requests.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
