Slack OAuth 2.0

Please note: This integration describes an outdated approach to Slack apps. Please see the Sign in with Slack integration for the latest way to connect Auth0 with Slack.

The Slack social connection allows users to log in to your application using their Slack profile.

By default, Auth0 automatically syncs user profile data with each user login, thereby ensuring that changes made in the connection source are automatically updated in Auth0. Optionally, you can disable user profile data synchronization to allow for updating profile attributes from your application.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, sign up for a Slack Developer account.

3. Test connection

Set up app in Slack
