Slack
Slack is a channel-based messaging platform. With Slack, people can work together more effectively, connect all their software tools and services, and find the information they need to do their best work — all within a secure, enterprise-grade environment.
Integrate the Slack API with the SFTP (key-based auth) API
Setup the Slack API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the SFTP (key-based auth) API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate Slack and SFTP (key-based auth) remarkably fast. Free for developers.

Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!
Connect Slack#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
slack: {
type: "app",
app: "slack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://slack.com/api/users.profile.get`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of SFTP (key-based auth)#
The SFTP (key-based auth) app on Pipedream allows you to securely transfer and manage files over a network. It uses SSH for data transfer and provides the same level of security as SSH, without requiring password authentication, making automation workflows more secure and less prone to human error. You can automate file uploads, downloads, synchronization tasks, and efficiently manage your remote files in a serverless environment. Integrating this with other Pipedream-supported apps enables you to craft powerful and secure data flow systems.
Connect SFTP (key-based auth)#
module.exports = defineComponent({
props: {
sftp: {
type: "app",
app: "sftp",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
const Client = require('ssh2-sftp-client');
const {
host,
username,
privateKey,
} = this.sftp.$auth
const config = {
host,
username,
privateKey,
}
const sftp = new Client()
await sftp.connect(config)
this.cwd = await sftp.cwd();
return await sftp.end();
},
})
