Questions about permissions

Which users can view the dashboard?

  • Slack: Users with Admin-level permissions or higher.
What permissions does the bot request?
  • Discord: Read Messages / View Channels, Manage Server, Use Slash Commands
  • Slack: Standard bot permissions, similar to most Slack bots.
About security
For both Discord and Slack we follow the platform-provided security standards, and all data is encrypted.

Questions about data

Can I view historical data?
Currently we display data from the time the bot was installed onward.
Some data appears incomplete.
  • Discord: If the bot doesn’t have the appropriate permissions, data may not be retrievable and certain views may appear empty. Please double-check the category/channel permissions.
  • Slack: Private channels can only be analyzed if the bot is invited to them. Invite the bot to those channels as needed. For privacy reasons, direct messages and DM-group information are not collected.
Some channels don’t show any data.

The most common cause is the bot not having the required permissions.

Beyond that, for new-feature and privacy reasons, the following data is not collected. We update this list periodically, so feel free to reach out via the Discord support server.

  • Slack: All DM and DM-group information, and huddle-related information.

Questions about security

How is personal information handled?
We follow our Privacy Policy as well as the developer policies of Discord and Slack. All collected and computed data is stored in encrypted cloud databases (Amazon Web Services).
