In Nango ([free signup](https://app.nango.dev)), go to [Integrations](https://app.nango.dev/dev/integrations) -> *Configure New Integration* -> *Slack*. Go to [Connections](https://app.nango.dev/dev/connections) -> *Add Test Connection* -> *Authorize*, then log in to Slack. Later, you'll let your users do the same directly from your app. Let's make your first request to the Slack API (fetch a list of channels in a Slack team). Replace the placeholders below with your [secret key](https://app.nango.dev/dev/environment-settings), [integration ID](https://app.nango.dev/dev/integrations), and [connection ID](https://app.nango.dev/dev/connections): ```bash theme={null} curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/conversations.list?limit=10" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer " \ -H "Provider-Config-Key: " \ -H "Connection-Id: " ``` Install Nango's backend SDK with `npm i @nangohq/node`. Then run: ```typescript theme={null} import { Nango } from '@nangohq/node'; const nango = new Nango({ secretKey: '' }); const res = await nango.get({ endpoint: '/conversations.list', params: { limit: 10 }, providerConfigKey: '', connectionId: '' }); console.log(res.data); ``` Or fetch credentials with the [Node SDK](/reference/sdks/node#get-a-connection-with-credentials) or [API](/reference/api/connection/get). ✅ You're connected! Check the [Logs](https://app.nango.dev/dev/logs) tab in Nango to inspect requests. Follow our [Auth implementation guide](/guides/primitives/auth) to integrate Nango in your app. To obtain your own production credentials, follow the setup guide linked below. ## 📚 Slack Integration Guides Nango maintained guides for common use cases. * [How to register your own Slack OAuth app](/api-integrations/slack/how-to-register-your-own-slack-api-oauth-app)\ Register an OAuth app with Slack and obtain credentials to connect it to Nango * [How to setup webhooks with Slack on Nango](/api-integrations/slack/webhooks)\ Set up Slack Events API webhooks to receive real-time workspace events * [Slack user access tokens in Nango](/api-integrations/slack/slack-user-access-tokens)\ How to get, and use, Slack user access tokens with Nango Official docs: [Slack API docs](https://api.slack.com/web) ## 🧩 Pre-built syncs & actions for Slack Enable them in your dashboard.
