Slack Tool Now Uses Official Dust Marketplace App

šŸ“Œ Context

Previously, the Slack tool in Dust was using a non-approved Slack app. This caused a security warning to appear when connecting, and in some cases, it completely blocked the connection for companies with strict security policies that only allow approved Slack apps.

We've now upgraded the Slack tool to use our official Dust app from the Slack Marketplace—the same trusted app that powers the Slack bot you may already be using.

šŸ”„ Impact on Dust

Dust now provides a unified, approved Slack integration across all features. The Slack tool connection flow has been updated to use our official Marketplace app, ensuring a seamless and secure experience.

šŸ‘¤ Impact for you

If you're already using the Slack tool: No impact. Your existing connection will continue to work without any interruption.

If you're setting up a new Slack tool connection: You'll now connect through our official Dust Marketplace app. This means:

  • No more security warnings during connection
  • Works even if your company policy restricts non-approved apps
  • Cleaner, more trustworthy connection experience

āœ… Actions required

No action required on your part.

If you previously couldn't connect the Slack tool due to company policy restrictions, you can now try again—the official app should be approved by your security settings.
