How can I deploy a bot on Slack with my own Slack App?

The process is quite simple !

Start by going to Slack API: Applications | Slack and click on “Create New App”

Then choose “from an app manifest” :

You can get the manifest from here :
https://res.cloudinary.com/meet-ideta/raw/upload/v1669753866/slack%20manifest/manifest.json

Make sure to change the app and bot’s display names in the manifest :

Then scroll to the “App credentials” part of the “Basic Information” tab :

And copy the info found there in the “Publish” tab of your Ideta app after unselecting “Use the Ideta app” :

Go to “App Manifest” and make sur to verify the app url (top of the screen, if option is available).

From Ideta > Publish, you can connect your app, and then you can start using it.

At any point, do not reinstall there :

If you do, uninstall the app and reinstall it from Ideta > Publish.

That’s it, you can look for your app in Slack and start using it.
