# VS Code Slack extension
Send your messages and files to Slack without leaving VS Code. Works with the latest API. (Updated 4/29/2021)
#### How it works?
* Upload file to Slack
* Send message to Slack
### Installation
You can install this extension by pressing F1 in Visual Studio Code, then typing "ex install" and selecting it from the list.
### Slack integration
Based on the latest updates on Slack API, you can no longer create legacy token to connect this extension to your Slack workspace.
Create a new Slack App from https://api.slack.com/apps/ and add the following OAuth Scopes to "Bot Token":
* incoming-webhook
* channels:read
* chat:write
* chat:write.customize
* files:write
* groups:read
* im:read
* mpim:read
You can then copy and paste the token into your VS Code settings file. The token should start with **"xoxb-"**.
**Do not forget to add the app's bot user to channels you want to post to.**
### VS Code Configuration
Go to User Settings (File > Preferences > User Settings) and add the following
```
"slackVSCode.token": "",
"slackVSCode.listChannels": true,
"slackVSCode.listGroups": false,
"slackVSCode.listMembers": false,
"slackVSCode.fileWithFullPath": true,
"slackVSCode.excludeFromFullPath": "/Users/alper/dev",
"slackVSCode.defaultRecipient": ""
```
* ##### `"token"` (required)

* ##### `"listChannels"` (optional)
* `true` for listing the slack channels
* ##### `"listGroups"` (optional)
* `true` for listing the slack groups
* ##### `"listMembers"` (optional)

* ##### `"fileWithFullPath"` (optional)
* `true` if you want to send files with full path
* ##### `"excludeFromFullPath"` (optional)
* String to exclude from the file full path i.e. `/Users/alper/dev`
* ##### `"defaultRecipient"` (optional)
* The default recipient, to send the message directly without choosing from the drop down. i.e. `#general`, `@user`
