@Marvin What permissions does a prefect-slack bot need in order to post messages to a channel of my choice?

To allow a Prefect-Slack bot to post messages to a channel of your choice, you should ensure that the bot has the appropriate permissions in your Slack workspace. Specifically, the bot needs: 1. Send Messages (chat:write) - This permission allows the bot to send messages to channels. 2. Access Channels (channels:read) - To identify and access the channels it can post to. If you're setting this up using the Prefect integration for Slack, you would configure
SlackCredentials
with these permissions to enable your flows to send messages upon completion. For more detailed guidance, you may want to look into the documentation on integrating Slack with Prefect: - Prefect 2.x documentation: Prefect Slack Integration - Prefect 3.x similar structure: Manage Users in Prefect Setting up with the right permissions is a friendly reminder that even bots need the correct "words" to speak up in a channel!
