Exam Slack-Dev-201 Topic 1 Question 33 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's Slack-Dev-201 exam
Question #: 33
Topic #: 1
Your Slack app is designed to provide custom notifications to users based on their activity within various channels.
Which OAuth scope should you request to adhere to security best practices?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

channels:history The channels:history scope is necessary for an app that needs to access channel activity to provide custom notifications. This scope allows the app to read messages and other channel activity, aligning with its functionality while adhering to security best practices of requesting only necessary permissions.
Why not the other options:
*Chat:write is used for sending messages, not for accessing channel activity.
*Users:read is for accessing basic information about users, which does not include channel activity.
*The admin scope provides extensive administrative control over the workspace, which is excessive and unnecessary for the app's stated functionality.
