Zapier errors / Auth
Oops! Neither you nor the bot are in the selected channel
Cause
Both the Zapier Slack bot and the authenticated Slack user are absent from the channel named in the action, so Slack rejects the request.
Fix
In Slack, open the target channel and type /invite @Zapier to add the bot. Ensure the account used to connect Slack in Zapier is also a member. Re-test after both are confirmed members.
