Alfred Slack Status manager

Quickly set your status (and do-not-disturb settings) from Alfred

Setup

You will need one of the following:

• A legacy slack token (they no longer generate these, but you might have one still on your account)
• A user token from a slack app you have created (see below section on this)

Set that token in as the SLACK_TOKEN workflow variable

Usage

Type ss and space to activate the workflow. You can quickly use the lunch shortcut by typing ssl.

Creating a slack app

If you don't have a legacy token lying around, you can create a slack app to generate a user token for you

• Creat the app: https://api.slack.com/apps?new_app=1
• Add the User Token Scopes: https://api.slack.com/apps/[your app id goes here]/oauth
  • You'll need to add dnd:write and users.profile:write
• Click the 'Install to Workplace' button at the top of the page
• Copy the token in the box labeled 'User OAuth Token'
