Slack Permission Changelog

For more detailed information on all scopes requested by the PagerDuty Slack application, see the full listing here.

2025-02-03

Change

Added the following optional bot token scopes: channels:history, groups:history, reactions:read, reactions:write.

For workspaces connected prior to February 3, 2025, we will not request these scopes unless you explicitly opt-in, by enabling the associated settings on the Slack configuration screen in the PagerDuty web application.

For any newly added workspaces, we will request these scopes, however you may immediately opt-out by disabling the associated settings on the Slack configuration screen in the PagerDuty web application.

Purpose

The PagerDuty Slack application now allows customers to leverage PagerDuty Advance directly from the PagerDuty Slack app, without needing to install the separate PagerDuty Advance Slack app. If you are already using the PagerDuty Advance Slack app, you may enable these optional scopes and uninstall the PagerDuty Advance app.

Additionally, the PagerDuty Slack application now supports ingesting Slack data into Jeli for post-incident analysis. With these new scopes enabled, PagerDuty can automatically ingest the contents of your dedicated Slack channel into your Jeli Opportunity.
