Please can someone advise if I am able to set a reminder for the first Friday of every month in Slack without having to add a date so for example:-

/remind #channel It's time for another Monthly Board Update on the first Monday of every month at 10:00am

  • Have you tried something like : "/remind me to do whatever on the 1st friday of every month". – harrymc Jul 28 '22 at 20:04
  • I might just set one reminder and then include in my reminder a task to create another reminder.... at least for monthly stuff. – Att Righ Jul 30 '22 at 17:58

The closest I've found is

/remind monthly "Message" at 10:00am

However, this is for the 1st, which may or may not be a Friday (but it's at least close)

(A) create a new google calendar and set your dates. Then connect that google calendarto slack

(B) However, I'd personally prefer to use a yearly calendar and use copy-paste to set a reminder for each specific date: it allows me to avoid setting them on public holidays, or too close to new year's eve etc. It probably takes less than 10 minutes to do that for a two-year period.

(C) You also might want to look at this question
