Slack

The Slack connector enables easy and secure data synchronization between your application and your customers’ Slack accounts through unified data models.

​
Authorization

The Slack connector uses OAuth for secure authentication. When creating a connection, the required OAuth scopes are automatically configured based on your specific operations needs (e.g. genericContact::create, genericUser::list).

✓ Automatic token refresh handling
✓ Proactive insufficient permissions detection
