About Slack

A team collaboration platform for real-time messaging, file sharing and project coordination. It lets teams create channels, send direct messages and integrate tools to keep conversations and files in one place. People use it to coordinate work, discuss tasks and share updates across the team.

What Cakewalk Does With Slack

Govern who on your team and which agents can access Slack. Cakewalk syncs everyone with access to Slack and what each person can do, discovers the service accounts and agents connected to it, then grants and removes that access automatically. AI agents can also act inside Slack, checked against policy on every call.

Integration Capabilities

Access Sync

Cakewalk continuously reads who has access in Slack and at what level, then reconciles it against your directory of record. Out-of-band and orphaned access is surfaced for review.

Auto Provisioning

Cakewalk provisions and removes Slack access automatically. When someone joins, changes roles or leaves, their access is granted, adjusted or revoked without a ticket.

Agent Connection

A Connection lets an AI agent act in Slack through Cakewalk instead of with its own API key. The agent operates with the permissions of the person who made the request, only for the duration of that task. Every call is checked against policy and written to the audit log.

NHI Discovery

Cakewalk discovers the non-human identities tied to Slack, the service accounts, API keys and AI agents that operate as shadow IT and shadow agents when they go ungoverned. Each one is surfaced and brought under the same access policy and audit log as the people on your team.

Use Cases

A Live Picture of Who Has Access Access Sync Cakewalk continuously reads who has access in Slack and at what level, so the list is current instead of a stale export.
Access That Slipped Through Access Sync When access is granted in Slack outside of policy, the next sync surfaces it for review, so orphaned and out-of-band accounts do not pile up.
Day-One Access Without a Ticket Auto Provisioning When a new hire starts, Cakewalk provisions their Slack access from policy on day one, with no ticket and no SCIM required.
Access That Follows the Person Auto Provisioning When someone changes teams or leaves, their Slack access is updated or removed automatically, so it always matches their role.
Let an Agent Handle Slack Tasks Agent Connection A person asks their agent to do something in Slack, like find a record, update a field or pull a report. The agent does it through Cakewalk with that person's own access, not a shared key.
Every Action Checked and Logged Agent Connection Every agent action in Slack is checked against your access rules and written to the audit log. Safe actions go through, risky ones wait for approval or are blocked.
See Every Non-Human Identity NHI Discovery Cakewalk finds the service accounts, API keys and agents connected to Slack, so machine access is no longer invisible.
An Owner for Every Machine Identity NHI Discovery Cakewalk ties each service account and agent in Slack to a human owner, so non-human access is accountable.
