Hi Guys,

I’ve been trying to configure communication between Slack and UiPath using UiPath.Slack.Activities Package.

I encountered a problem with Configuration within Slack Scope. Has anyone had any previos experience with the package and could help me solve it?
I’d like to send messeges to Slack’s workspace when a certain condition occurs in my automated process.

You can have the native integration by creating the API link via orchestrator, then you will be able to use the activity you are trying to use in screenshot.

Below video shows how to create the API based integration:

Below steps for the Slack setup:

Alternatively, you can have a look at your requirements closely and see if the below video can help you, that shows the slack integration via webhooks, basically if the chatbot is doing the text based triggers only.

Do you have any idea why Slack Scope still needs Exiisting Connection?
