Slack Integration

Slack is a cloud-based communication platform designed for teams and workplaces. Slack enables real-time messaging, file sharing, collaboration, and integration with other tools and services.

How does this integration help Sprinto

The integration primarily helps Sprinto retrieve the user account details like user name, email address, role, etc. It helps Sprinto to map and check if the user with access offboards the organization. The org role information also helps Sprinto ensure only the configured valid roles access the system.
