Troubleshooting Slack Integration

If you encounter issues with the Slack integration:

    • Ensure you've granted all the required permissions

  2. Sharing Failures:

    • Verify you have permission to post in the selected channel

    • Check your internet connection

    • Ensure the ChatPRD app is still authorized in your Slack workspace
