Slack migration to marketplace architecture

Overview

The Slack integration has been migrated to the Marketplace framework, providing a more secure and scalable foundation for future enhancements. This migration improves how Slack accounts are connected and managed behind the scenes while maintaining the same experience for existing users.

What changed

• Enhanced Security - Slack connections now leverage Marketplace authentication flows, improving credential handling and account security
• Future-ready Architecture - The integration now runs on a scalable Marketplace foundation designed to support upcoming Slack enhancements
• Seamless Migration - Existing Slack connections continue to work without requiring users to reconfigure their setup. Currently, older connections would remain in the existing architecture and in future all connections would be migrated without any user action.

How it works

• Existing Slacks users would be automatically migrated to the Marketplace-based integration once the feature is out of labs.
• New Slack connections are connected through the Marketplace architecture
• Users can continue using Slack functionality as before with no changes to their existing workflows
• Backward compatibility would be maintained and existing workflows would continue working as expected.

Why it matters

• Stronger security and authentication controls
• Improved reliability and maintainability
• Scalable architecture for future Slack features

How to enable

Users can enable the feature from account labs for early access.
