## Slack questions, answered.

Anything else? Write to [support@postqueen.ai](mailto:support@postqueen.ai) and a person answers.

### Can I post to private Slack channels?

Yes. Invite the PostQueen app to the private channel first, then pick it in the post. Public channels work right after you install the app.

### Can I upload files or video to Slack?

No. Images are shown under the message as image blocks, but files are not uploaded, and a post with video is refused before it is scheduled.

### Whose name appears on the message?

The name and picture you set for the Slack channel in PostQueen, so a scheduled message can carry your brand or a team name.

### Can my AI agent post to Slack?

Yes. Connect PostQueen to your AI agent through the MCP server or the CLI and ask it for a message with images and thread replies in a channel of your connected workspace.

### Can I save a Slack post as a draft?

Yes. Save it as a draft from Create Post, or ask your AI agent to create a draft instead of scheduling it. Drafts wait on your PostQueen calendar, and length and required settings are checked only when you schedule the post.
