@vladest Well, it depends on how you define workspace. Using the official slack API it is necessary to create a "slack app" in a workspace you want to connect to. With the app token, you will then be able to log into the slack RT API and the Web API into this workspace. You cannot switch workspaces to have a general client to connect to different workspaces the slack app is bound to the workspace it is created for.

RE: Slack Client
@3arn0wl Please do not take this as an offense but the whole point was to get Slack ported as its quite common to be used within companies.
E.g.: In my company slack is used for global communication between departments.
I have not yet heard anything new from Slack, beside that they appreciate the offer of assistance in the development. I will try to reach out to them again but to be honest i doubt that slack is investing resources in the Ubuntu Touch version.
I am a software developer myself and it's quite hard to push projects in the lanes when there is no solid return of the investments.

RE: Stuck on development release 930
@Lakotaubp & @Flohack : I was able to update to 937 with the installer. Thank you for your assistance. I will give it another try with onboard update as soon as a new version is available to let you know if on device update is working again.

@Lakotaubp Sorry forgot to mention i had running the updates on the phone. Until i reached update 930 which i currently stuck on.

Stuck on development release 930
Hey guys,
i'm facing a problem when trying to update from the development version 930 on my OnePlus One. The update can find newer updates but every time i try to update the system my device just goes straight to the UBPorts Recovery.
Will i be able to update to a newer version without a complete flash?
Thank you for any advice.

RE: Slack Client
Hey guys,
as i have switched to UT a few weeks back and use Slack quite often (personally and for business) i was also thinking about creating a Slack client. The main problem was the way slack is constructed its not directly possible to have a fully standalone client.
I was following the approach of an Slack App and quickly realized that those apps can only communicate within the workspace they have been created for.
I decided to reach out to Slacks tech support, the support was quite informative and as they understood what i wanted to do they told me that its not possible to create a fully fletched standalone client with the current APIs they provide. As the API seems to be centered around the slack apps. Which according to the API documentation does not have a single endpoint for switching workspaces.
I was able to create a prototype to have this whole OAuth2 token generation part and the Connection to the RTM/WebAPI ready but was bound to the workspace my slack app was created for.
On the other hand the app department of slack was quite interested in providing an UbuntuTouch client. They told me they will discuss this and have put this on their feature requests.
I mean possibly there could be a way to have this running without slack or the endpoints. But i believe this involves heavy reverse engineering and network sniffing in order to get the correct communication to be able to get this working as a standalone client.
The support team told me they would get in touch again which should be this week to have me informed about possible progress. But i would not count on this.
Bests,
Alex
