Slack Channel Exclusion

[Chance Douglass]

I wanted to ask 2 questions of the community. For those who are currently connecting Rovo to their Slack environment.

1. What has your experience been regarding indexing credits? Does Slack use a lot or is it reasonable?
2. Have you been able to exclude certain channels from ingestion?

Thank you in advance

Slack indexing with Rovo typically uses credits based on message volume and access scope. For most users, usage is reasonable unless indexing high-traffic channels. As of now, excluding specific channels isn’t natively supported (feel free to submit a feature request), but you can limit access by controlling which channels the Rovo app is added to.

Atlassian hasn't published detailed guidance on how indexing credits apply to Slack, so usage may vary.
