Slack

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.

Filtering and Selection

Users can refine the indexing scope of the connected token with options to enable or disable indexing for:

• Private Channels

• Public Channels

• Connections

• Channels containing the Unleash Slack Bot

Note: For example, entering the prefix 'feature' will match all channels that start with 'feature'.
