SearchD for Slack
SearchD is an SEO, AEO and GEO agent for Shopify brands.
Keep project updates in one Slack channel you choose for each project.
What does SearchD post in Slack?
When a channel is connected, SearchD posts a short intro naming who connected it.
SearchD sends the notifications you enable in English or Korean:
- The first evaluation result, once it is ready.
- A completed-work report, daily or weekly.
- Action items, daily and only when something is waiting for you.
You can also send a test notification from your project's notification settings.
How do I connect Slack?
Project admins connect Slack in SearchD. You need a SearchD account and a project.
- Sign in at app.searchd.ai and open your project.
- Go to Settings, then Notifications, and select Connect Slack.
- Choose your Slack workspace and approve the requested permissions in Slack.
- If asked to invite the app, open the channel you want in Slack and enter
/invite @SearchD. Return to SearchD and select Recheck channels. - If SearchD is in more than one available channel, pick a channel and select Connect. If there is only one, SearchD selects it for you.
- Turn on Slack notifications, choose the notification types and schedule, then select Send test notification.
Which permissions does SearchD request?
SearchD uses bot permissions to post notifications and let you choose a channel it has been invited to.
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
chat:write | Post notifications to the channel you chose. |
channels:read | List public channels SearchD was invited to so you can pick one. |
groups:read | List private channels SearchD was invited to, shown only to members of those channels. |
What Slack data does SearchD store?
SearchD stores your workspace ID and name, the chosen channel ID, its name if it is public, and an encrypted bot token. Private channel names are shown only during selection and are not stored with the connected channel; temporary selection records contain encrypted names.
To show private channels only to their members, SearchD checks each channel's member list during selection and does not store it.
SearchD does not read Slack messages or files. Read the Privacy policy for data use and deletion details.
How do I disconnect or remove the app?
In your project's Settings, open Notifications and select Disconnect Slack. This deletes the project's channel details right away. Once no project uses the bot token, it is revoked and deleted within about a day.
To remove SearchD from your Slack workspace, open Manage apps in Slack and remove the app. The remaining Slack data is deleted automatically when Slack notifies SearchD.
