Features & Capabilities

Slack produces a native Windows/macOS app but also has a nearly identicial web UI. Users of the web UI experience frustration however, as links to Slack messages created in both the native app and web app are in the form https://{WORKSPACE}.slack.com/archives/{CHANNEL_ID}/p{timestamp} which leads to a page that attempts to open the native Slack app from the browser. Avoiding this redirect saves considerable time for Slack web app users.

Slack Redirect is a Firefox extension which intercepts links in the above format and opens instead to the https://app.slack.com/client/{TEAM_ID}/{CHANNEL_ID} format directly in Firefox.

Is Slack Redirect Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Slack Redirect requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Slack Redirect is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
