Limiting Clay's Access for Slack Channel Integration

Hey guys, I was looking to connect Clay to Slack today to send a specific notification to a channel but was a bit turned off by the non official integration and quite extensive access to information Clay could have. How can I limit the access only to the channel clay will interact with?

Our Slack integration connects via OAuth and requires "Bring Your Own Account" setup. The integration allows you to send messages to specific Slack channels by entering the channel name in the action setup. However, the available documentation doesn't detail specific permission scoping or access limitation settings within the Clay-Slack integration setup process. Are you looking to restrict Clay's permissions at the Slack workspace level, or are you asking about configuring the integration within Clay to only target specific channels?

what I'd like to ensure is that Clay doesn't have access to the whole content of our slack workspace for security reasons, I only want clay to have access to the channel(s) it sends notificaitons to

Our Slack integration uses OAuth authentication and requires "Bring Your Own Account" setup. The integration allows you to send messages to specific Slack channels by entering the channel name in the action setup. We also offer a "Send scheduled message to channel (minimal scopes)" action that appears designed for reduced permissions. However, the specific permission scoping and access limitation controls would need to be configured at the Slack workspace level during the OAuth authorization process, rather than within Clay's interface. Which specific Slack channels do you need Clay to access, and are you the Slack workspace administrator who can control OAuth permissions during the connection setup?
