Wondering if this is going to be updated so as to use "Slack apps" instead of legacy tokens about slack-autoarchive

Thanks for the PR!

sounds reasonable. send a PR if you want.

This is beyond my skill set for now, so probably won't be able to get to it for several weeks or months. Might be better suited for someone on the project more familiar with the Slack API.

Turn out this was a bit easier than I thought it would be.

Nothing in the Python code actually needs to be changed. It's just README.md that should be updated so as to reflect what permission scopes the particular Slack app needs.

When using the OAuth token, the script just kept spitting out errors. The script doesn't really return any error message from Slack, but I just went through slack-autoarchive.py looking at all the api_endpoints. Then I looked through Slack's documentation for the particular API methods. Turns out that for the particular Slack app, you can look up particular methods right in the search bar for the permission scopes. Some of the script's methods overlap for the particular permission scopes that they need. Anyway, I have a complete list now:

• channels:history
• channels:read
• channels:write
• chat:write:bot
• chat:write:user

Easy enough once you add those permission scopes. I'll update README.md and send a pull request. Thanks.

great, sounds like a reasonable PR. After you send it, I'll close this issue.

#32 should be all we need here.
