Trello, Slack integration, self-join

whyameye February 9, 2019

How do members of my slack team "self-join" my Trello team such that we can be sure the trello account they create is associated with their slack account? I can't seem to find an explanation of how self-join is supposed to work and I haven't found a slack command to join members of my the slack team to the trello team.

@whyameye one option is to use a an SSO identity provider (G-Suite/Office365) for both Trello and Slack, that way they're all tied back to the same account. There's no self join for teams, only boards.

@Iain Dooley- This page seems to indicate otherwise. https://trello.com/en-US/guide/team-administration.  The section called "Be a Slack(er)" indicates that by linking to a Slack team they can join the Trello team.

Additionally, there is a tip that says:

> #TrelloTips: Business Class team admins can choose whether any member of a linked Slack team can join the team or if Slack team members should only be invited manually.

The current configuration for my team is: "Slack team members can self-join this Trello team." which implies that I need Business Class if I want to disable that functionality.
