Create a Slack App

1. Visit https://api.slack.com/ and sign-in to your Slack Workspace to create a new app. Specify the name for your app and choose the Slack Workspace where the notification will be sent.

2. Under the "Add features and functionality" section, click on "Permissions" .

3. Scroll down to "Scopes: Bot Token Scopes", click on "Add an OAuth Scope" and apply the following permissions:

• channles:read
• channels:join
• chat:write

4. Click on "Install App to Workspace" then authorize the permissions you have specified for the app.

Slack will then generate a "Bot User OAuth Access Token". Take note of this token as it will be required to authorize the Slack Plugin in JetBackup.

Install and Activate the Slack Plugin

Once you have your Slack App configured, open JetBackup 5 and navigate to the Notification Settings (Settings > Notification).

1. On the Slack Notification Plugin, click "Install" then hit "Activate"
2. On the Slack Notification Integration window, configure the following available options:
   • Select the Notification Alert Levels and the frequency you would like to send your notifications. For more information about alert types, please visit Alerts.
   • Specify the Slack Channel Name you would like to receive the JetBackup notifications to.
   • Enter the Bot User OAuth Access Token generated in your Slack App then hit "Enable".

JetBackup will then attempt to verify that the Slack Plugin is properly configured by sending a notification to the channel you specified on the plugin, and should receive the following prompt: "JetBackup notification integration configured successfully". JetBackup will now be able to send notifications through Slack.

Configure a JetBackup Google Bot

Visit your Google Developer Console and sign in with your GSuite Account.

On the search box, look for "Hangouts Chat API" and click "ENABLE".

Once enabled, navigate to "Credentials", click "+ CREATE CREDENTIALS" and select "Service Account".

Fill in the necessary information and hit "CREATE". The setup will then ask for optional account and user access permissions which you can skip.

After setting up your JetBackup Bot Service Account, click on the ellipsis icon under the Actions column and click "Create Key"

Choose JSON for the Key type and hit "CREATE". This will download a JSON File which you will use to authenticate the Google Hangouts Plugin in JetBackup.

Once you generate your service account private key, navigate to "Configuration" to configure your JetBackup Bot. On this page, you set up the name, avatar and description for your bot, as well as set permissions and available functionality. Under "Connection settings", select Bot URL and specify your server hostname.

Add Bot to a Google Chat Room
