Slack Connector: Security

Authentication

The connector uses mixed authentication mode. It means that Users successfully authenticated by AD will get access to all Public Channel Messages and Users data types. If user wants to get access to his Private Channel Messages, he will need to provide his Slack Token in Source Credentials window. Token can be generated on this page: https://api.slack.com/custom-integrations/legacy-tokens

Identification

  1. For User data type:
    Scope: SlackUser
    Sid: Everyone
  2. For Public Message data type:
    Scope: SlackUser
    Sid: Everyone
  3. For Private Message data type (if channel is not selected to be indexed as public channel):
    Scope: Slack API Url + Channel id
    Sid: User Id
