  • Have you ever wondered who Slacks the most at your work?
  • Sadly, there is no Slack wrapped.
  • But if you follow these simple steps, you can find out who sent the most messages this year.

It's easy to tell who the top slacker is in your office.

Slack, the ubiquitous workplace messaging app that has been changing workplaces since 2014, makes it easy to see who sent the most messages this past year.

Unfortunately, there is no glitzy presentation like Spotify Wrapped, but if you want to know who is blowing up your notifications the most, here is how to do it.

1. Sign in to Slack

These instructions work regardless of whether you're using the desktop or browser.

2. Go to your Slack domain stats portal

If you don't know your office's Slack domain, click on your organization's name in the upper left-hand corner. Hovering over your company's name will indicate your proper workspace URL.

If you want to skip the URL entirely, click Tools from the same drop-down menu. Then click Workspace analytics. Select your Workspace. (You may have more than one option.)

5. Sort by total messages

Click Messages posted if they are not already sorted in descending order. That's it.

While this data won't tell you who is the biggest @here offender (you know who you are) or even if these messages are on topic or just the latest memes, you now know who is your organization's biggest slacker.
