The G4SLKRSVC command allows you to register a service with your Slack ID and Team. Registering a service allows G4SLK to access the functionality of this service for the ID and Team specified using OAuth v2.0 security.

When this command is run you'll be presented with a URL to go to in your browser after first signing into your Slack account.

Next you will then be asked in the browser if you wish to grant access to G4SLK to the specific service and authorities. Once complete, G4SLK will have access to the particular service for your Slack ID and Team.

See the example below for the flow you should expect.

  • ID - Specify the Slack ID that you want to register a service for. This is normally the Slack ID that is associated with the Team you wich to register.
  • Team - Enter the team you want to register. The ID and Team are unique to all of the functionality for the G4SLK application and functions.
  • Service - Specify the service to register. This is normally just *SLACK.
  • CCSID - Sepcify a CCSID to use for data conversions.
  • Debug - Specify *YES to turn on debugging.
  • Debug File - Enter the fully qualified name of the debug file you wish to use. If left blank, this value defaults to /tmp/g4slk_<id>_registerServiceDebug.txt.
