Executive Summary:

The April 2026 Slingshot release strengthens how teams collaborate, onboard, and connect their work to data—without switching tools.

From Microsoft Teams calling built directly into chats, to faster onboarding with CSV import, to expanded data integrations, this release removes friction across your workflow and brings everything into one place.

This update focuses on reducing context switching, simplifying onboarding, and expanding how teams connect work and data inside Slingshot.
