Slack

You can add identity verification to Slack using the Incode app for Slack. Once installed, employees and IT teams can request on-demand identity verification directly from Slack before sharing sensitive information, handling high-risk requests, or granting access to protected meetings.

Prerequisites

• A Slack workspace where you have admin permissions to install apps
• Access to the Integrations page in the Incode Dashboard. Contact your Incode Representative if you do not see the Integrations page.
• Your Slack Team ID

What the Incode Slack App Does

The Incode app adds two slash commands to your Slack workspace:

• /incode: Send an identity verification request to another Slack user. Both the sender and recipient can view verification results in real time.
• /incode-meeting: Protect a Zoom meeting invite with identity verification. The recipient only receives the meeting link after passing verification. Requires a Zoom subscription.

Common use cases:

• IT administrators verifying an employee's identity before handling an MFA reset or account lockout via Slack
• Finance and sales teams protecting wire transfer requests, contracts, or invoices before sending to recipients

2. In the left navigation, click Integrations.

Step 3: Install the App in Your Slack Workspace

Follow the prompts to grant the Incode app access to your Slack workspace. You will be asked to authorize the app for your organization.

Use the /incode and /incode-meeting commands in a Slack direct message to confirm the integration is working.
