i cant even find the code for thast slash command?
can the repo manager direct us so we can contribute?

Looks like this might be the repo: https://github.com/hakobera/redashbot

it doesnt seems like that. this bot gets a visualization and query id
and just snapshots the embed URL , and sends to slack.
what make believe this is the repo?

I just didn’t look close enough. Looking around I’m not sure it was released. I did find this reference so maybe I’m assuming you might need to reach out to Arik.

That’s not our slackbot. IIRC that repo isn’t public.

Yes, unfortunately the Bot code isn’t open source :frowning: There was no good reason to develop it in private back then and now a bit of a hassle to open source.

The good news are that we want to migrate the functionality of the bot into the main codebase. So it’s both open source and available with every deployment. It will also address this issue: The IP address that Slack bot accesses is not fixed.

We don’t have concrete plans on when we can start working on this though, so community help will definitely be appreciated.
