[Back to What's new](https://docs.quivly.ai/changelog.md) [](https://docs.quivly.ai/updates/2026-11.md) v1.38.0 # Choose when Quivly may reply in shared Slack channels Privately approve one answer, your thread, or your questions throughout a channel that outsiders can read. Before answering an internal teammate in a Slack channel outsiders can read, Quivly can ask privately whether it may reply once, throughout that thread, or throughout the channel. You can also decline and ask in an internal channel or DM. Check the audience before approving: the answer may reveal internal account information to everyone who can read the channel. Thread and channel approvals cover only your questions, do not expire automatically, and are cleared when channel sharing changes. Customer-linked channels stay scoped to that customer. Workspace response settings and data-change approvals still apply separately.
