Summary
User is experiencing issues with syncing Slack message file attachments to BigQuery. The Slack connection is established, but the raw records in BigQuery do not include file attachment data, despite the presence of a ‘files’ key in the exported Slack JSON.
Question
Does anyone know how to sync Slack data related to message file attachments?
I’ve got a connection from Slack → BigQuery enabled and working:
• All streams and fields within those streams are enabled
• The Slack bot has an OAuth scope of file:read
enabled
Investigating a specific Slack message which has a screenshot:
• The corresponding BigQuery raw records don’t contain anything related to the screenshot
• Performing a manual export of the Slack workspace and checking the data shows a files
key in the JSON message corresponding to that Slack message
So for some reason, this isn’t being synced… ideas?
