Slack Connector 12.12

# Retrieve and Index Access Control Lists

To configure the Slack Connector to retrieve and index Access Control Lists (ACLs), follow these steps.

To retrieve and index Access Control Lists

1. If the connector is running, stop the connector.
2. Open the connector’s configuration file.

3. Set the `MappedSecurity` parameter to `true`.

   - To index ACLs for all fetch tasks, set this parameter in the `[FetchTasks]` section.
   - To index ACLs for a single fetch task, set this parameter in the `[TaskName]` section for the task.

   For example:

       [FetchTasks]
       Number=1
       0=MyTask
       MappedSecurity=True

       [MyTask]
       ProxyHost=proxy
       ProxyPort=8080
       SSLMethod=NEGOTIATE
       ProcessChannels=TRUE
       ChannelNameMustHaveRegex=development|idol.*
       UseEmailInACL=True
       IndexDatabase=Slack

   TIP: The `UseEmailInACL` configuration parameter determines whether the connector constructs ACLs that contain Slack user names or e-mail addresses. The default value is to use e-mail addresses.

4. Add a field to each document to specify the security type. To do this, create an ingest action or run a Lua script. For example:

       [Ingestion]
       IngestActions=META:SECURITYTYPE=SLACK

   NOTE: The field name and value that you specify must match the name and value you use to identify the security type in your IDOL Content component configuration file (for more information about configuring Content, see Configure IDOL Server).

5. Save and close the configuration file.
