ChainPatrol Slack Bot
A Slack bot that can be used to submit scam reports to ChainPatrol
If you have a Slack workspace, you can use the ChainPatrol Slack Bot to let your workspace members submit scam reports to ChainPatrol. The bot will generate new reports that get sent to your admin dashboard for review.
Setup
Bot Installation
Go to the Admin Dashboard
Start by opening your dashboard on the ChainPatrol app.
Go to Organization Settings
In the navbar, select Settings to go to your Organization Settings page.
Go to Integrations Tab
Once you are in the organization settings, navigate to the Integrations tab. This section contains options for the Slack bot as well as other integrations.
Complete Slack OAuth
In the Integrations tab, you will find an option to Add to Slack. Click this button, then you will be redirected to the Slack authorization page. Click Allow.
Remember to select the correct workspace at the top right of the authorization page.
Confirmation and Finalization
The ChainPatrol Slack Bot should appear in your listed apps along with other allowed workspace apps.
Adding ChainPatrol Bot To Your Reporting Channel
Remember to add the slack bot to the reporting channel! By default, the ChainPatrol bot does not automaically read and join existing channels for privacy.
Link Organization
This step needs to be done with help from ChainPatrol staff in order for the Slack Bot to work properly.
Please send ChainPatrol staff your workspace’s Slack Team ID so that we can finish the automated pipeline.
- Follow Slack’s documentation to locate your Team ID.
Slack refers to the Team ID as “workspace or org ID”.
https://app.slack.com/client/TXXXXXXX/CXXXXXXX
In the above URL, the Team ID is the slug that begins with T.
Usage
Once the bot is added to your workspace and you have sent ChainPatrol your Team ID, you can use the following actions:
Slash Commands
/chainpatrol <url>- Submit a scam report for the given URL
Shortcut Actions
For a given message, click on the kebab menu and then select the Create Report option.
Privacy
The bot does not collect any personal information. It only collects the URL and the Slack ID of the user that submitted the report (in case a moderator needs more information about why the URL is a scam). The bot does not store any sensitive information about the workspace it is added to.
