Built in

Slack

The Slack Web API as the bot of a Slack app you create in your own Slack workspace. Authorising the connection installs the app; the platform keeps the bot token, so it never reaches workspace code. Its default scopes are the ones the company agent's Slack channel uses.

Inside SegmentStream

Connected once, used everywhere.

Connections are declared in your repository and authorised in the console. The credentials stay with the platform; apps, pipelines, workflows and the agent use them under the same roles.

The console's connections page: Resend, Xero, Stripe, Supabase, LinkedIn and Telegram connections, each connected, with the key it is declared under in code — Connections declared in code and authorised here. The credentials stay with the platform, never in the repository.

What the connection reaches

Web API methods the app's bot scopes allow: post messages, read the channels it is in, files
Default scopes cover mentions, channels, direct messages and files
Callable from pipelines and from ontology actions

Status: Built into the pipeline SDK
Connection class: SlackConnection
Credential: Slack app of your own, installed in your Slack workspace

Connect Slack

Three steps, the same for every connection. The credential goes to the platform, never into the repository or pipeline code.

Declare it in connections/connections.py

connections/connections.py

from segmentstream.connections import SlackConnection connections = (    SlackConnection(key="slack"),)

2
Deploy
```
$ segmentstream deploy
```
3
Connect
Create a Slack app at api.slack.com/apps in your Slack workspace. Enter its client ID and secret in the console, and add the redirect URI the console shows to the app under OAuth & Permissions.
```
$ segmentstream connection configure slack
```
4
Then
Open the connection in the console and sign in with a Slack account allowed to install apps in the workspace, or authorise it from the terminal. Tokens are refreshed by the platform; pipeline code never sees them.
```
$ segmentstream connection authorize slack --open
```

Use it

Code asks for the connection by its key. The platform adds the credential on the way out.

pipeline/ingestion/…

import segmentstream as s with s.get_connection("slack").get_http_client() as client:    response = client.post("/chat.postMessage", json={"channel": channel, "text": text})    response.raise_for_status()

Or ask your agent

“Add a Slack bot that posts the weekly revenue summary to #leadership.”
