Note that this step only has to be done once for the entire instance.

Before anything else, you need to setup the Slack app to be used by your Infisical instance. Because you’re self-hosting, you will need to create this Slack application as demonstrated in the preceding step.
Create Slack app
Click the “Create Slack app” button. This will open up a new window with the custom app creation flow on Slack.
Select the Slack workspace you want to integrate with Infisical.
The configuration values of your custom Slack app will be pre-filled for you. You can view or edit the app manifest by clicking Edit Configurations.
Once everything’s confirmed, press Create.
Input app credentials from Slack
Copy the Client ID and Client Secret values from your newly created custom Slack app and add them to Infisical. Complete the admin setup by pressing Save.
