Accessing Message and Channel Data

eddy has very limited access to messages in your company's Slack workspace. eddy will never have access to direct messages, unless it's a direct message with eddy. eddy will only have access to channel messages when eddy is added to a channel, and only for the duration of eddy's time in that channel. Note: we currently don't recommend adding eddy to any of your workspace channels; eddy does not require being added to any channel in order to fully function.

Security Practices and Infrastructure

eddy is built on the Amazon Web Services with support from FlowXO and the Slack API. We utilize segregated accounts for production infrastructure access with security credentials stored in secrets management systems and never in code. Code deployments and clustering utilize immutable Docker instances to segregated VPCs for Production and Staging deployments. No PII is stored beyond a user's Name and Email, which is used for the purpose of identifying accounts.

Slack Permissions

eddy uses Slack's Permissions to request access only to those permissions that are required for eddy's onboarding functions. When you install eddy in your Slack workspace Slack will display a list of permissions that eddy needs to access for your approval.

The following Slack permissions are currently used by eddy:
