Slack – Integration Setup

This guide walks you through connecting your Slack workspace to Antei, enabling automated, structured tax and compliance notifications across your finance and legal teams.


Authentication Method

Antei connects via OAuth 2.0 using Slack’s granular bot scopes.

  • Type: OAuth 2.0 + Slack App Installation
  • Permissions Granted:
    • chat:write — to send outbound notifications
    • channels:read — to fetch a list of available public channels for routing
  • Scope of Access: No read access to messages, users, or files
  • Security: Permissions are scoped to specific channels and logged per workspace

🔐 Antei is SOC 2 compliant. All message actions are auditable within your organization settings.


Step-by-Step Setup

1. Navigate to Integrations → Slack

In your Antei dashboard, go to Integrations and click Connect Slack.


2. Authorize App in Slack

You will be redirected to Slack’s OAuth screen. Select your workspace and approve the Antei bot with chat:write and channels:read permissions.


3. Configure Notification Channels

Back in Antei, define the routing rules for your Slack messages:

  • Select a default channel for compliance alerts
  • Map entity- or jurisdiction-specific channels if needed
  • Customize message templates for return reminders, notices, and escalations

✅ Antei only sends outbound messages. No Slack messages, user data, or files are accessed or stored.


Verification & Testing

Antei posts a test message to validate configuration and permissions:

  • ✅ Channel fetch and availability check
  • ✅ Test message delivery confirmation
  • 📝 Audit log created under Settings → Logs
