Administrator Slack commands

Background

Calven has the ability to create a group based on the Slack channel membership. This is valuable when you want to have a specific group in Calven to utilize for event planning or desking, but the group doesn't exist correctly in your directory.

Creating groups based on Slack channel membership

  • /calvenadmin creategroup [#channel] - create a group in Calven from a channel

    • Use creategroup to allow notifications to be posted to the channel and to synchronize team membership from the channel membership.

  • /calvenadmin removegroup [#channel] - remove the group that was created (creategroup) from a channel

Linking a Slack channel to an existing Calven group

  • /calvenadmin linkgroup [#channel] - link to an existing group

    • Use linkgroup to allow notifications for the group to be posted to the channel.

  • /calvenadmin unlinkgroup [#channel] - unlink channel from a group

Checking a group's status

If you want to see the status of an existing group, you can use this command. 

  • /calvenadmin checkgroup [#channel] - check whether the channel is a synchronized group (creategroup) or a linked group (linkgroup)
