Join Channel

UiPath.Slack.Activities.Channels.JoinChannel

Overview

The Join Channel activity uses the Slack conversations.join API to add you to an existing channel (Channel) in a workspace.

The following steps and message sequence diagram is an example of how the activity works from design time (i.e., the activity dependencies and input/output properties) to run time.

1. Complete the Setup steps.
2. Add the Slack Scope activity to your project.
3. Add the Join Channel activity inside the Slack Scope activity.
4. Enter values for the Input properties.
5. Run the activity.

In the Body of the Activity

• Channel Name - The channel that you want to join. Enter a valid channel name String or use the drop-down list to select a channel from your workspace.
