Thank you for your feedback
Connection
A connection to Slack can be established using a Personal OAuth token. Due to API limitations, the user creating the Slack connection must be a member of the Slack groups they intend to index. If the user leaves a connected channel, the sync will stop, and the channel set as a resource will be deleted.
Slack supports permission-based links. Channel members can only see the resources of the channels they are members of when Slack is set as a data source for the assistant.

Can archived Slack channels be indexed?
Yes, if you manually select an archived channel and are still a member, it will be indexed. However, if you choose a broader filter (such as "All Public Channels"), archived channels will be excluded from indexing and search results.
To locate the Slack Channel ID
Open the channel, click the channel name, scroll to the bottom of the modal, and click the copy icon next to the channel ID
Sync
Sync is incremental every 15 minutes for messages and files, other resources every 6 hours.
