Slack Integration Guide
What the Slack integration does
With Slack connected, Nakama gives Slack its own panel: browse your channels and DMs, read conversations, send messages as yourself, reply in threads, react with emoji, and turn any message into a todo — side by side with your mail and calendar.
Adding the app (connect)
1. Open the Nakama side panel in Chrome.
2. Press the + (Add) button at the bottom of the right-hand rail to open the Marketplace.
3. Choose Slack and press Connect.
4. A Slack sign-in page opens. Sign in to your workspace and press Allow to authorize Nakama.
5. A Slack icon appears in the Nakama rail and the Slack panel opens with your conversations.
Using the app
Browse conversations. The panel title is a channel picker — press it to switch between public channels, private channels and DMs (with search).
Send messages. Type in the message box at the bottom; it grows as you type. Messages send as you, not as a bot.
Act on a message. Hover any message for quick actions: add a reaction, reply in thread, forward, save, add to Todo, and a ⋮ menu with edit / delete (your messages), copy, pin, and mark unread.
Share files. Drag a Drive file or a Gmail (converted to PDF) onto the conversation to share it.
Permissions and data handling
Nakama requests Slack scopes to read your conversations and history, send messages as you, and manage reactions, pins and saved items. Your Slack token is stored only in your browser's local extension storage and never on Nakama's servers; the app secret stays server-side for the OAuth exchange only.
Removing the app (disconnect)
In Nakama: press + (Add) in the rail to open the Marketplace, find Slack (shown as Connected) and press it to disconnect. The Slack icon leaves the rail and the stored token is deleted from your browser.
In Slack: a workspace admin can also remove the app under Manage apps in Slack, which revokes access on Slack's side.
Troubleshooting
An action says it needs a new permission: your authorization predates the app's current scopes — disconnect and connect again.
