Provisions

Onboard new users with your most relevant content

Updated over a week ago

With Slab's Provisions, team admins can customize a new hire's onboarding experience. This makes it easier for them to quickly access the most relevant information without getting overwhelmed.

Setting up provisions

To access provisions:

  1. Click your team name in the top-left corner of the sidebar.

  2. Click Team settings in the dropdown menu.

  3. Click Provisions in the left sidebar.

Creating new provisions

To create a new provision, click Add new on the provision page.

You can then name your provision and assign them a type of role. Choose User to give them standard access, Admin for complete access, and Guest for limited access. Learn more about user types here.

Under Membership, choose any posts, topics, or groups you want these users to join. You can also select favorite topics or posts under Favorites — this will pin the content to users' sidebars for easy access.

Check the box under Registration URL to allow teammates to join with the provision via a sharable link.

When new users sign in for the first time, they'll see the topics and favorites you chose pinned to their left-hand sidebar!

Inviting new teammates using provisions

When inviting new teammates, click on the provision field to invite users via the provision you set up. To learn more about inviting teammates, click here.

If you enabled URL registration, you can also share that link instead! Add the URL to your welcome email or onboarding materials to make it easy for teammates to join you on Slab.

  1. Click your team name in the top-left corner of the sidebar.

  2. Click Team settings.
