Connecting the Slack Adapter in Axonius

1. From the Adapters page, search for Slack and select the adapter.
2. Click Add Connection. The Create Connection drawer opens on the Connection Configuration tab.
3. Fill in the sections below, then save the connection.

To check that Axonius can reach the source before you enter credentials, click Check Network Connectivity. For more details, see Adding a New Adapter Connection.

Environment

The instance this connection reads from.

1. Host Name or IP Address (required) (default: https://slack.com) - The hostname or IP address of the Slack server.
2. Account Sub Domain - The Slack account's sub domain (.slack.com).
3. Enterprise Grid Organization - Select this if you are using the Slack Enterprise Grid Organization solution. This allows Axonius to fetch data from all workspaces associated with the authentication token.

Access

How Axonius authenticates to the instance.

1. Authentication Token (required) - An Authentication Token associated with a user account that has the required permissions to fetch assets. For instructions on generating the Authentication Token, see admin.users.list.

2. Username and Password - The credentials for a user account that has the required permissions to fetch assets.
3. MFA Secret - If you access Slack through an SSO solution that requires multi-factor authentication, you will need to generate a secret key in that solution and paste it here. See Set Up Google Authenticator for the Okta adapter, for an example.
4. Not an Admin Token - Select this option if the Authentication Token you entered is not an admin token. In this case, the Team IDs field must be populated. All admin endpoints will be skipped in the fetch.

Scope

1. Team IDs

   • Copy the Team ID from the team's URL in the Slack web client. For example, if the team URL is https://app.slack.com/client/T0123456789/A0123456789, the team ID is T0123456789.
   • If you leave this field empty, the team IDs will be fetched automatically from the admin.teams.list API.

More Options

1. Verify SSL (default: enabled) - Select whether to verify the SSL certificate of the server against the CA database inside of Axonius. For more details, see SSL Trust & CA Settings.
2. HTTPS Proxy - A proxy to use when connecting to the value supplied in Host Name or IP Address.

3. Select Gateway – Select the Axonius Gateway to use when connecting adapters whose sources are only accessible by an internal network and not from the primary Axonius instance, which may be an Axonius-hosted (SaaS) instance or Customer-hosted (on-premises / private cloud). To use this option, you need to set up an Axonius Gateway.
