- On the Your Apps page, click Create New App.
- In the popup, select From scratch.
- Name your app.
- Pick the workspace it will be developed in.
- Click Create App.
- You will be redirected to the Basic Information page. Scroll down to App Credentials and copy the following values:
- Client ID: this is your Client ID to be pasted in the Slack integration settings in the Magento 2 admin panel.
- Client Secret: this is your Client Secret to be pasted in the Slack integration settings in the Magento 2 admin panel.
- Then, in the same Basic Information tab, scroll down to Display Information and fill in app details (name, short description, background color, and app icon).
