I am looking for a call which could send a Slack team invitation email to a new user from my application. I searched it in the SlackAPI but I didn't find anything. Is it possible to create an application which would sent invitations on my behalf?
I'm currently using slacker as a Python wrapper, but if there is any better library which provides invitations I can start using it.
Invite new users via API
There is an undocumented method in the Slack API that allows you to programmatically invite new users to your Slack workspace:
- method name:
users.admin.invite - arguments:
token,email,channels - token: your slack API "test" token (required)
- email: email address, e.g.
email=test@email.com(required) - channels: comma separated list of channels the new user will auto-join. channels are specified by ID. e.g.
channels=C000000001,C000000002(optional)
full example:
https://slack.com/api/users.admin.invite?token=XXX&email=test@email.com&channels=C000000001,C000000002
Note that this API method only works with legacy type tokens.
I started documenting the "undocumented" Slack API methods I know about including users.admin.invite. Check out the documentation on github.
Create new users via API
Alternatively there is an endpoint in the SCIM API to directly create new users:
However the SCIM API with all its endpoints is only available to Slack workspaces on the Plus plan or Enterprise Grid.
