Join Channel
Join a Slack channel. This action card adds the user who created the Slack connection that's used by the card to the selected channel.
If your workspace has a large number of channels, this card may exceed the 60 second time limit while trying to populate the Channel dropdown list. This timeout can also occur when testing a card.
Options
| Field | Definition | Type | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| Channel | List of public channels of which the user who created the connection is not a member but can join.
If that user is already a member of the channel, then the Already in channel message will be returned. A maximum of 200 public channels will be displayed. The dropdown will display only those unarchived channels of which the user who created the Slack connection is NOT a member. Even if the number of public channels may not exceed 200, not all applicable channels may display anyway. To specify a public channel that is not listed, select the Enter Channel ID option and populate the Channel ID input field. If a failure occurs and no channels are listed in the dropdown, then only the Enter Channel ID option will be displayed. |
