# Get Slack Channel

**GET** `/v1/organizations/claude_tag/slack_channels/{id}`

Get one Slack channel and its settings. By default `settings` holds what the channel itself stores: a setting that is null there is not set on the channel and is inherited. With `include_inherited=true`, `settings` holds what applies in the channel once the settings levels above it are taken into account, and the request fails with 503 rather than resolve against a settings level that could not be read. Either way `sources` names the settings level each value comes from, so a caller tells the channel's own value from an inherited one by its source, not by whether it is null.

## Path parameters

- `id: string`

  The channel's identifier, starting with `slch_`.

## Query parameters

- `include_inherited: optional boolean`

  When `true`, `settings` holds what applies in the channel once the settings levels above it are taken into account, and every member of `sources` names the level a value comes from. When `false` or left out, `settings` holds what the channel itself stores.

## Headers

- `"anthropic-version": optional string`

## Returns

- `BetaClaudeTagSlackChannel object`

  A Slack channel set up for Claude Tag, with the settings it stores or, with `include_inherited`, the settings that apply in it.

  - `type: "slack_channel"`

  - `id: string`

    The channel's identifier. Starts with `slch_`. It does not change for as long as the channel is set up, with one exception: a channel that is not configured gets a new one when claude.ai replaces its record, which happens only while the organization's read-only mode is off. A channel that is removed and set up again also has a new one. The old one keeps returning 404; look the channel up by its Slack identifiers for the new one.

  - `created_at: string`

    Time the channel was set up, by whichever route. It does not change for as long as `id` does not.

    format: date-time

  - `settings: BetaClaudeTagSettings`

    What the channel itself stores or, with `include_inherited`, what applies in it. `sources` says which.

    - `enabled: boolean or null`

      Whether Claude is on. The nearest settings level that sets it decides.

    - `environment_id: string or null`

      The environment Claude's sessions run in, starting with `env_`, or the identifier of a self-hosted runner pool, starting with `ccpool_`. The nearest settings level that sets it decides.

    - `guest_policy: BetaClaudeTagGuestPolicy or null`

      What Claude does in a channel while a Slack guest is in it. The nearest settings level that sets it decides.

      - `BetaClaudeTagGuestPolicyAllow object`

        Claude answers in the channel.

        - `type: "allow"`

      - `BetaClaudeTagGuestPolicyRestrict object`

        Claude does not answer in the channel.

        - `type: "restrict"`

      - `BetaClaudeTagGuestPolicyChannelOnly object`

        Claude answers with only the Bundles attached to the channel itself.

        - `type: "channel_only"`

    - `instructions: string or null`

      Instructions for Claude. Instructions add up: the text of every settings level that sets it is joined, broadest first.

    - `model: string or null`

      The model Claude uses: a model identifier or the name of a model line. The nearest settings level that sets it decides. When none does, Claude uses the product's default model.

  - `slack: BetaClaudeTagSlackChannelIdentifiers`

    Slack's own identifiers for the channel.

    - `channel_id: string`

      Slack's identifier for the channel, starting with `C` or `G`, such as `C0456EFGH`.

      minLength: 2, maxLength: 32

    - `workspace_id: string`

      Slack's identifier for the workspace the channel is in, starting with `T`, such as `T0123ABCD`.

      minLength: 2, maxLength: 32

  - `sources: BetaClaudeTagSettingSources`

    For each setting, the settings level its value in `settings` comes from.

        - `type: "slack_workspace"`

        - `slack_workspace_id: string`

          The workspace's identifier, starting with `slws_`.

      - `BetaClaudeTagSlackParentChannelSettingSource object`

        The value comes from the channel that a code channel was started from. A parent channel contributes `instructions` and `environment_id` only.

        - `type: "slack_parent_channel"`

        - `slack_channel_id: string`

          The parent channel's identifier, starting with `slch_`.

      The settings level `guest_policy` comes from.

    - `instructions: array of BetaClaudeTagSettingSource`

      Every settings level that contributes text to `instructions`, broadest first, in the order their text is joined. Empty when none does.

      - `BetaClaudeTagSlackChannelSettingSource object`

        The value comes from the addressed Slack channel itself.

      - `BetaClaudeTagSlackWorkspaceSettingSource object`
