Can the app read my channels?

No. It never asks for channel-message permission, so the ability is not there to misuse. It sees the text of a /deooch command and the direct messages you send it — nothing else. Adding it to a channel would not change that.

Who owns a form created from Slack?

The Slack user who asked for it, through the deoochform account they personally connected. Installing the app for a workspace does not put everyone's forms in the installer's account — each person connects their own, and forms count against their own plan.

Does everyone in my workspace have to connect separately?

Yes. One person installs the app for the workspace; each person who wants to use it connects their own account once. Anyone who hasn't gets a private prompt with a link the first time they try.

Where do responses go?

To your deoochform dashboard, the same as any other form. Slack is only the place you asked for the form; nothing about the responses lives there.

What happens if we uninstall the app?

The connection stops working immediately and Slack requests stop being accepted. Every form you already created stays exactly where it is, still owned by you, and its public links keep working. Uninstalling is not a delete.

Can I edit a form from Slack?

Not yet. Slack creates forms; editing, reading responses, and submission notifications happen in the app. Each reply includes a link straight into the builder.

Slack app

Install Deooch Forms in Slack, then create forms with /deooch or by messaging the app — and get a shareable link straight back in the conversation.

The Deooch Forms Slack app turns a sentence into a working form without leaving Slack. Describe what you need, and the app replies with a link you can paste into any channel. Responses collect in your Deooch Forms dashboard.

Installing

Open Settings → Integrations and hit Add to Slack.
Approve the permissions. Slack will show exactly four — see what the app can access below.
You'll be sent back to connect your Deooch Forms account. That link works once and expires after ten minutes.

One person installs the app for the whole workspace. Everyone else who wants to use it connects their own account the first time they try — the app sends them a private link automatically.

Creating a form

Two ways, and they behave identically:

The slash command, anywhere in Slack:
/deooch a signup form for Thursday's workshop — name, email, dietary needs
A direct message to the app — send it the same sentence with no command prefix.

Either way you get an immediate acknowledgement, then the finished form a few seconds later: its title, its public link, the fields that were created, and a link into the builder if you want to change something.

Replies are private to you. The app never posts a form link into a channel on your behalf — you paste it yourself, when you are ready.

What the app can access

Permission	What it's for
`commands`	Lets you run /deooch. Without it Slack has nowhere to send the command.
`chat:write`	Lets the app reply with your form's link.
`im:history`	Lets the app read the direct messages you send it — and only those.
`im:write`	Lets the app open a DM to send you the welcome message after install.

Notably absent: any permission to read channel messages. The app does not request one, so it cannot read your channels even if someone invites it to one.

Ownership and limits

A form created from Slack is an ordinary form. It belongs to the account the requesting Slack user connected, appears in that person's dashboard, is editable in the builder, and counts against that person's plan — not the installer's. If someone hits their form limit, the app tells them in Slack and creates nothing.

Disconnecting

Remove a single connection from Settings → Integrations, which affects only you, or remove the app from Slack, which cuts off the whole workspace. Either way every form you have already created stays live.
