Slack

Weekly prompts and new-intro posts to a channel you choose, plus an optional directory and direct-message grant.

Last verified against our product: October 4, 2026

Availability

Available in the admin console

How an admin connects it

Two separate OAuth grants. The first is for channel posts; the second is optional, for directory and direct messages.

Who can set it up: Organization admin.

Notifications: in the admin console, open the Slack card, click Connect, and choose the channel Slack should post to.
Directory and direct messages (optional): click the separate directory connect and approve the read-and-message request.

Permissions requested

Permission or scope	What it allows
`incoming-webhook`	Post to the one channel you pick during install. Notifications grant.
`users:read`	List workspace members. Directory grant.
`users:read.email`	Read member email so we can match Slack people to Mucho Gusto members. Directory grant.
`chat:write`	Send direct messages such as meeting-prep prompts. Directory grant.

Workspaces that connected the directory grant before chat:write was added keep the narrower scope until they reconnect. We request no channel-history, message-content or file scopes.

Data we read

Read

Notifications grant: the workspace name and the chosen channel name
Directory grant: each member's email and real name

Not read

Messages, channel history or files
Deleted, bot, and restricted or guest accounts (skipped)
Job titles or reporting lines (Slack does not supply them to us)

How the data is used

A weekly prompt (Mondays, 15:00 UTC) and new-intro posts to your chosen channel.
The directory grant matches Slack people to members by email so meeting-prep prompts can arrive as a Slack direct message.

Sync frequency

Channel posts are event-driven plus the Monday 15:00 UTC prompt. The directory grant is matched in the nightly 04:00 UTC resync.

Disconnecting and purging data

How: Admin console, Slack card, Disconnect (and Disconnect directory for the second grant).

Disconnecting notifications deletes our stored webhook and channel.
Disconnecting the directory grant deletes our stored bot token.
Also remove the app from your Slack workspace settings to revoke it on Slack's side.

What remains: Previously stored Slack-to-member mappings are not removed by disconnecting. To have previously synced data removed as well, email [email protected] and we will handle it case by case; there is no self-service purge today.
