Fix Your AI-Built Slack API Integration
Slack's APIs for building bots, integrations, and workflow automations. AI tools misconfigure event subscriptions, mishandle OAuth, and skip request verification.
Common Slack API issues we find
Problems specific to AI-generated Slack API integrations.
Request signature verification missing
AI-generated Slack webhook handlers don't verify the X-Slack-Signature header, allowing anyone to send fake events to your endpoint.
Not responding within 3 seconds to events
Generated event handlers try to process everything synchronously before responding, causing Slack to retry events and eventually disable your endpoint due to timeout.
Bot token and user token confused
AI tools use the bot token for actions that require a user token (or vice versa), causing permission errors or posting messages as the wrong entity.
Socket Mode and Events API mixed up
Generated code combines Socket Mode connection logic with Events API webhook patterns, creating a hybrid that doesn't work in either mode.
OAuth V2 flow not correctly implemented
AI tools implement Slack OAuth using V1 patterns or skip workspace-level token storage, breaking multi-workspace installations.

Frequently asked questions
Why does Slack keep retrying events to my bot?
Slack expects a 200 response within 3 seconds. AI-generated handlers try to process the event before responding. You must immediately return 200, then process the event asynchronously. We restructure your handlers to use a queue or background processing pattern.
Is my AI-generated Slack bot vulnerable to spoofed events?
If your code doesn't verify the X-Slack-Signature header using your signing secret, then yes. Anyone can send fake events to your endpoint. We implement proper request verification on every incoming Slack event and action.
How do I fix Slack OAuth for multi-workspace installation?
AI tools store a single bot token, which only works for one workspace. Proper multi-workspace support requires storing the team ID and bot token for each installation, and looking up the correct token when handling events from different workspaces.
