Add Thena to a Public Channel

When you select a channel where you want Thena added, Thena does not send any posts. This can be configured by you, as some of our customers use the welcome post by Thena to set expectations on how this channel can be used.

By default, Thena is setup to be minimally invasive (so we will not post information in this channel without explicit user intent). Privacy Policy, Terms, Security FAQ
