Enable Slack OAuth log-in (Slack SSO)

Slack single sign-on allows users on your team to log in to Lucid by clicking through a document invitation in Slack. It also allows users to login with their Slack credentials from the Lucid login page. To enable Slack SSO for users on your team, follow these steps:

Select Admin in your Lucid account.
Click Security in the left-hand menu.
Select Authentication from the dropdown in the left-hand menu.
Check the box next to “Allow sign in with Slack."
- You can select or unselect any of the other methods.
Click Save changes.
If you would like to make Slack the default log-in method for users on your team, select it from the "Default authentication" dropdown.

Enable Slack org-wide app

If you are on an Enterprise account with anywhere from two to hundreds of Slack workspaces, you can deploy Lucid Slack apps across all Slack instances at the same time. To give all your employees access to Lucid apps, follow these steps:

Make sure Slack is installed in a workspace on the enterprise, as seen in the example image below.
Click the three-dot icon to the right of a workspace.
Select the option to install for the organization.
Select which workspaces you would like to enable.
- You can check the box for “Default for future workspaces” on the far-right to enable the automatic deployment of any future workspaces.

FAQ

Can the Lucid app still be used in Slack without using the org-wide app installation?

Yes. Lucid accounts will now be able to connect to any number of workspaces – even without using the org-wide app functionality.

Do users in multiple Slack instances need to authenticate Lucid for each workspace?

Users only have to authenticate with the Lucidchart or Lucidspark app once for all workspaces that have access to the app, as long as they are all on the same Slack enterprise.
