Slack: How To Change Your Account Email Address

Email addresses are a pretty much universal account identifier for online accounts and services. Email addresses are popular because pretty much everyone online has one. They can act as both a username and a point of contact. Most websites with any form of interaction with other users allow you to develop a separate username that may or may not need to be unique.

Occasionally, you may change the email address that you use. If you do so, you can update the email address associated with as many accounts as possible. Unfortunately, many websites and services do not allow you to change your account’s email address. This is the key account identifier they use. Slack is one of the services that allow you to change your account’s email address.

Note: If your workspace uses a Single Sign-On service to provide identity verification, you may not be able to edit your personal information. This includes the email address associated with the account. Contact your system administrator for assistance.
