Onboard a Slack data source

Private beta feature

This feature is available as an invitation only beta release. Beta functionality is stable but possibly incomplete and subject to change. We strongly discourage using beta features in production.

HCP Vault Radar allows you to connect to any workspace on Slack and scan for secrets in public channels.

Permission in Slack to install third-party apps from the marketplace.
Known limitations
Vault Radar has a limit of 5000 channels per workspace. If you have more than 5000 channels, Vault Radar selects the 5000 channels with the most recent activity.
