Slack

Post updates and alert the right channel.

Vrot connects to Slack through its official API so workers can report what they have done and raise anything that needs a person.

Supported capabilities

What the Vrot Slack plugin can do once you connect it in the app.

  • Post messages
  • Post to channels
  • Send direct messages
  • Read channel messages
  • Upload files

Capabilities vary by integration. The Vrot application determines which capabilities are available.

This page describes what the Vrot Windows application supports for Slack. Connections are made inside the application on your own computer — nothing on this website connects to your accounts.

Triggers

Events in this application that can start a worker run.

  • New message in a channel
  • Mention
  • Scheduled check

Authentication

How the connection is authorised inside the Vrot app.

OAuth 2.0 (Slack)

Vrot is installed into a workspace with the scopes you approve, and only reaches the channels it is added to.

You authorise the connection in the Vrot application on your computer. This website never asks for access to your accounts.
