This can happen if there was a delay in the process, or if you navigated away from the screen for too long. Here's how you can resolve the issue: Restart the Process: Go back to Slack and initiate the GitHub account connection process again. Check for Pop-up Blockers: Ensure that your web browser is not blocking pop-ups or redirects, as these are often used in the OAuth process required for account connections like this. Browser Issues: Try using a different web browser, or open an incognito/private window and attempt the process again to avoid issues with browser extensions or cookies that may be interfering. Clear Cache and Cookies: Sometimes, clearing your web browser's cache and cookies can resolve these issues. This can help if your browser's stored data is outdated or corrupted. Slack App Permissions: Make sure that Slack has the necessary permissions to integrate with third-party applications like GitHub. You can check this in your Slack settings under "Apps" or "Integrations". |
