  • Can’t find your Mattermost link? Ask your company’s IT department or your Mattermost System Admin for your organization’s Mattermost Site URL. It’ll look something like https://example.com/company/mattermost, mattermost.yourcompanydomain.com, or chat.yourcompanydomain.com. These URLs could also end in .net.
