- Enter application **Name**.
- Enter the **Application** **Owner** email information. 
- Search Connector in **Featured Integrations** and select **Slack**.
- **Agent **is software that needs to be installed on your on premise environment to pull data from applications such as Active Directory, Database and Custom Applications which are not cloud based.
  - Select **remote**if you already have the Agent Software installed.
    - The server where the agent is currently installed needs to have connectivity to the on-premises application or database.
    - If a new agent is required, contact your implementation consultant or submit a ticket via the SecurEnds Help Desk using the Report Issue link in the upper right corner of the SecurEnds application.  SecurEnds will need to provide files and instructions.
  - Select **local**if the application is cloud based. No agent install is required.
    - You will need to whitelist the SecurEnds IP’s.  Your Implementation Consultant can provide these.
- Select **Match By** logic as **Default(Email or FirstName and LastName)** or **Employee** **ID**. 
  - If we select **Default(Email or FirstName and LastName)** the system will match the user with Email or First Name and Last Name while syncing 
  - If we select **Employee ID** the system will only match the Employee ID while syncing 
- Select **Include Inactive Users** this flag will be **YES** to fetch all active users while sync 
- If we select the check box all the Active status users along with Disabled status users will be added in the Matched users for Slack. 
- If we deselect the Check box then only Active user will be added to the Matched users for Slack.
- **Include Entitlements** Enabled as **Yes** to load the entitlements on application while syncing.

- Provide **Slack Domain URL**and**Token** retrieved in [configuration details](https://www.securends.com/documentation/configuration-slack-application/).
