Slack API Permissions

[SBUK]

Has anyone onboarded Slack into Saviynt?  The documentation does not detail the permissions that are required to be assigned to the app within Slack.

Things like:

usergroups:read

users:read

users.profile:read

Anyone have a definitive list?

Looks like it needs admin as a user scope.

Still cannot get it to work - there's no detail in the documentation.

Since this is a REST based connector, any calls that you are able to successfully make from postman will work from Saviynt as well. No additional permission from Saviynt perspective is required.

Thankyou, but that is not answering my question.

A default APP in Slack, which is used for API calls, has no permissions.

Please can you advise of the particular setup required for the App in Slack that is required for this out-of-the-box connector in Saviynt.

The idea of these guided wizard on-boarding Application Integrations is that we fo not need to start with Postman - Saviynt has done everything.  The documentation is so poor...

In lower environments you can start using application onboarding module. that way you will get which apis are used in connection

That makes no sense to me...

Does anyone know what configuration is required for the APP in Slack, as required by the connector...

The below documentation link does provide the JSON examples that you can use for slack integration. As for the documentation, we will work with our team to see if there are areas for improvement and get them updated accordingly. Also if there are no additional permissions on slack side for api calls, then we do not need any permissions to be assigned.

Note: For any rest integration (even if its a Saviynt offered OOB integration), use of postman is still needed for any troubleshooting if required.

Thank you for posting the document, which I had already referenced as inadequate above.

The document specifies the need for an access token - it does not specifiy what rights the token  (APP) requires in Slack.

From the feedback - I get the feeling no one has ever used this OOTB Saviynt provided application design.

Has anyone on here successfully on-boarded Slack as an App in Saviynt?

If you could share you Slack APP config, it'd be much appreciated.

Sales pitch suggests this should be easy, with no use of Postman required...
