-====== Slack Integration ====== +See [[:nasuni-slack]].
- +
-The Access Anywhere Slack application provides you and your colleagues with a secure method of sharing files inside Slack. You can share files directly within Slack, and  set security controls on how long the file can be shared for, the number of times the file can be accessed, and add password protection to access the file. +
- +
-===== Installing Access Anywhere Slack Application===== +
- +
-To install the Slack application, click on the link below to install. +
- +
-[[https://filefabric.slack.com/apps/A9KAAUMTQ-sme-enterprise-file-fabric|Install NAA Access Anywhere Slack Application]] +

-===== Using Access Anywhere Slack Application ===== +
- +
- +
- +
-=== Allowing users to share in Slack === +
-Your user's access to Slack will be controlled through your Organization's File Sharing Policy.  +
- +
-This control allows you to set at the organization level whether your users are allowed to share files in Slack with Access Anywhere.  +
- +
-This option will be OFF by default, meaning that customers need to enable this before their users can share files in Slack with Access Anywhere.  +
- +
-To enable this option, login as the Team Administrator account, and go to the **Organization** menu, and select **Policies**. Under the **File Sharing Policy** section, you will find the control **Allow file sharing from Slack**. Turn this On if you wish to allow file sharing in Slack with Access Anywhere.  +
- +
- +
-=== Connecting Slack to NAA=== +
-In order for NAAto provide you with file sharing capabilities inside Slack, it needs to be able to connect to your Slack account.  +
- +
-To connect your Slack account, you should now be able to use the **/ff** command that is available in your workspace. Simply type it as follows: +
- +

- +
-Then press Return so that the command is submitted.  +
- +
-Slack will respond with a link titled **Share File**. +
- +
-The very first time you click on this link, you will first me asked to authorize the connection between NAA and your Slack account. This is needed so that we can share files on your behalf when you request it.  +
- +
-You will observe a screen like the following. When prompted, click the green "Authorize" button.  +
- +
-{{::auth.png?400|}} +
- +
-Once authorized, you'll be asked to enter your Access Anywhere endpoint like following: +
- +
-{{::sign_in___sme_appliance.png?600|}} +
- +
