Configure Slack Classic

NOTE: The Slack Classic app version is no longer supported. Please use the default Slack version (Bolt)

In order to configure AccessBot integration with Slack follow the next steps:

  1. Go to https://api.slack.com/apps?new_classic_app=1 and create a classic app

  1. Go to OAuth & Permissions and add bot scope in the Scopes

IMPORTANT: The reason why you need a classic app and the bot scope, is because the current AccessBot implementation uses the RTM API, which is not available when updating to the new bot scopes.

  1. Go to App Home

  1. Click Add Legacy Bot User and set its name
