Hi, would it be possible to provide updates for this application?
https://slack.com/downloads/windows

It's becoming more and more common in enterprises.

Thank you,
Pierre

We will check this out.

Unfortunately we can't add it because it installs under the user folder which can't be used by SCUP.

Ruben

Please reconsider adding Slack to the SCUP.

Many thanks in advance. This could be a real dealbreaker for us.. :-(

Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC)

Thanks for the details! We will look into the MSI, usually MSI's work just fine in most cases.

+1 for the MSI version of Slack client, please.

We are looking into Slack. We should know if it's compatible soon.

Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC)

Do either of you happen to have an old MSI for Slack we can use for testing?

dantutty

I don't, I'm afraid. We've only just started using it.

Ruben

I think I actually might have that one available that we used for SCCM deployment. I'll try my best to remind myself to have a look at the office tomorrow!

Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC)

Awesome that would be helpful!

Ruben

I just realized I had the previous version .msi on my thumbdrive, so if it is of any help; slack-standalone-3.1.0.0.msi
If you need an older version, I'd have to check the SCCM distribution point!

Omar (Patch My PC)

It's been added in today's catalog update :) Thanks for all the help Ruben & dantutty.

Ruben

Absolutely brilliant!
Quite the timing as I just got on to check on this thread, didn't see a reply, blinked twice, you replied.

Thanks for the effort!
