Slack appears to support SAML SSO, with a list of supported providers and ability to roll a custom one (https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/205168057 https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/205168057). Haven't tried/needed it, but wouldn't that care of this particular problem?
- ajdlinux 10y agoCan confirm - at my ultra-massive employer where we have a considerable number of very large Slack teams, we use SAML to authenticate Slack against our intranet ID and everything more or less works.
- csydas 10y agoI see, that was not set up at my last work place, so I was not aware it was an option. I have edited my original post to correct this with an updated content piece. Thank you both for letting me know.
