Process to clone an emoji from one slack workspace to another.

emoji-clone

Process to clone an emoji from one slack workspace to another.

Requirements:

• Requires python3
• You will need to install the slack_sdk for python: pip3 install --upgrade slack_sdk
• You will need a "legacy token" to interact with the source and destination slack teams

Slack permissions:

At this time, you must be an administrator of the slack team to which you are copying the emoji. This is a limitation of the slack API where admin_emoji_add is the only API endpoint for uploading an emoji, and it is restricted to Owner/Admins of the slack team.

Oddly, users (in general) can upload emoji's through the Customize web page.

So, if this is of use to you...

Usage:

./slack_emoji_clone.py <SRC_SLACK_NAME> <EMOJI_NAME> <DEST_SLACK_NAME> [NEW_EMOJI_NAME]

If you omit NEW_EMOJI_NAME, the current name will be used.

This process takes slack tokens as environment variables. Variable names are slackname_SLACK_TOKEN where slackname is freeform, but must match what you pass in on the CLI. See the example:

Example:

source_SLACK_TOKEN=xoxp-11111 dest_SLACK_TOKEN=xoxp-22222 ./slack_emoji_clone.py source yay dest yaynew
