Azhagesan Pazhanigurusamy (ID: 0000005402b80c0d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/15/2023 After it is connected to slack, it works really good. You have to report the "Connect to slack" not working in GitHub, so that the developer can fix it. This is a blessing to me because I cannot run my own app because of the permissions issue in my organization.
