SlackPortal: Create a share channel for your Slack workspaces

Description

You can use SlackPortal to create a share channel between two different workspaces. All the message, thread, editing, mention and emoji will be synced in the channel.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/bookgin/slackportal
cd slackportal
npm install @slack/client

# Then edit config.js to specify the tokens

node index.js

Get API Tokens

  1. Create a new slack app in https://api.slack.com/apps.
  2. App name can be arbitrary. Choose one of the workspaces you want to use SlackPortal.
  3. Navigate to "Add features and functionality": Select "Bots" and then "Add a Bot User"
  4. Both display name and default username can be arbitrary.
  5. Click "Add a Bot User" and then "Save Changes"
  6. Navigate to "Add features and functionality": Select "Permissions" and scroll down to Scopes
  7. Add the following permission scopes and "Save Changes":
  • channels:history
  • channels:read
  • chat:write:bot
  • chat:write:user
  • reactions:read
  • users:read
  1. Scroll up and click "Install App to Workspace"
  2. Authorize this app
  3. Now you have acquired OAuth Access Token (oauth_token) and Bot User OAuth Access Token (bot_token). Specify both tokens in local_bot_token and local_oauth_token in config.js
  4. Repeat steps as described above and choose the other workspace in step 2. Specify the tokens in remote_bot_token and remote_oauth_token in config.js.
  5. In both channels of workspaces, invite the bot user into the channel.
