Which Slack app scopes should be used to manage channel like Sentry or JIRA?

Question

I've read a lot about scopes for Slack OAuth flow here:

• https://api.slack.com/methods
• https://api.slack.com/scopes
• https://api.slack.com/legacy/oauth-scopes

Some methods are deprecated, some should work, for others - no good documentation or examples. But still don't know which scopes should I use for my app if I want:

• do auth flow for user;
• create own channel for integration (like Sentry, JIRA, GitHub and others do);
• push messages to that channel.

After all these documentation I can't find complete list of what I need and be sure that it will work.

Questions:

• which scopes should I use?
• can I set them like admin,channels,bot or be more specific channels:join,channels:manage,...

Examples:

• I used channels:write,conversations but got following error:

Invalid permissions requested
Invalid scope: channels:write,conversations

• I used channels:manage but it's asking about existing channels only.

You can try to use: channels:read,groups:read,channels:manage,chat:write from this tutorial.

In response you'll get following: chat:write,im:write,channels:read,channels:history,pins:read,reactions:read,users:read,channels:manage,incoming-webhook,groups:read

Not sure if they are enough for you, but looks like should work.
