Emoji are a spin on common emoticons. In Slack, emoji are both fun and helpful for getting work done — use them to enhance your messages or add emoji reactions to quickly respond to messages.
You can add emoji to your messages in two ways: by typing the emoji code or selecting an emoji from the menu.
Type the emoji code
On any device, type a standard emoji code in the message field, using a : colon followed by the code or emoji alias. If you don't know the exact emoji code, you can search for a word to find the emoji you're looking for.
Select an emoji from the menu
