Save slack photos from all public channels to google sheets or airtable

[Ella]

Hello,

I am new to Make and my goal is to save photos from Slack to either google sheets or Airtable. The purpose of this is to collect merchandising data and use it in a dashboard.

My first question is, is this possible without having to publicly host the photos somewhere before they can be uploaded to Airtable?

Secondly, is there someway for Make to monitor all public channels in slack at the same time? Right now I seem to be stuck choosing 1 channel at a time and I do not want to make a separate scenario for each channel in Slack to be monitored.

Thank you!

Hello Ella, welcome to Make Community.

To monitor all public channels in Slack use List Channels module from Slack app:

And regarding your first question — Airtable requires providing image URL to upload files to their servers, it’s Airtable’s SDK/API limitation.

Let me know if you have any further questions, have a nice day

Thanks for the solution and for answering my first question definitively!
