Installation

You can install the Slack Reader via pip:

pip install llama-index-readers-slack

Usage

from llama_index.readers.slack import (
    SlackReader,
)  # Import the SlackReader module.

# Initialize SlackReader with specified parameters.
reader = SlackReader(
    slack_token="<Slack Token>",  # Provide the Slack API token for authentication.
    earliest_date="<Earliest Date>",  # Specify the earliest date to read conversations from.
    latest_date="<Latest Date>",  # Specify the latest date to read conversations until.
