Swarmia's are a great way to stay up to date with all that needs your team's attention on a day-to-day basis.
You can get updates in both public and private Slack channels. If your team has a public channel, you should be able to choose it in Swarmia .
If you're using a private channel instead, follow the instructions below.
We recommend that you start by to your Slack workspace. This ensures we have all the permissions necessary to fetch the private channels from your Slack instance.
This prepares the necessary authorizations for listing your private channels. You can uncheck all the boxes if you're not interested in receiving personal notifications.
This can be done either with a direct text command or by going through the Slack UI to add the app to the channel.
Adding the Swarmia app to a private channel makes the channel name visible to everyone in your organization who can access the Swarmia UI.
To hide the channel name from the Swarmia UI, you can remove the Swarmia app from the private Slack channel.
For the UI approach, find the option to Add apps to this channel by entering the following on your private channel.
/invite
Next, find the Swarmia app and Add it to your channel.
For the text version, enter the following command in your Slack channel:
/invite @swarmia
You should be able to see your channel in the list now.
