Change your email address

The email address that you use for Slack is where we’ll send password reset emails and other important communications – it's best to keep up to date.

Note: If your workspace owner has enabled single sign-on, your ability to edit personal information, including email addresses, may be restricted.

Update your email on multiple workspaces

You can use the same email address to join or create multiple workspaces, but your account for each workspace is separate. To change your email address for another Slack workspace, sign in and repeat the same steps above.

Missing confirmation emails

We’ll send a confirmation email shortly after you update your email address. If you don’t receive the email, try the following:

• Check your spam or junk folder and any filters in your inbox.
• Open your email settings, and check for typos in the email address. If the address is incorrect, you can change it by following the steps above.

Tip: If your workspace allows, your email address may be visible in your profile. If so, other members can search for you with that email address.
