Slack Integration

Slack permissions

OpsBeacon requests the minimum permissions needed to function:

Permission	Purpose
`chat:write`	Post reports and responses to channels
`app_mentions:read`	Respond to `@Beacon` mentions
`channels:read`	List channels for report configuration
`users:read`	Identify team members for assignment
`im:write`	Send direct messages for alerts (optional)

OpsBeacon does not read message history, access private channels it hasn’t been invited to, or store Slack message content.

Beacon can post to any channel it’s been invited to. To invite Beacon:

/invite @Beacon

Go to Slack Settings → Manage Apps → OpsBeacon → Remove App. This immediately revokes all Slack permissions.
