Problem descriptionSolution

You can receive messages on Slack, but you cannot send messages from Slack to PSI Bot

Navigate to /apps/slack/post.php from your browser. If you receive a 403 - Forbidden error, you will need to contact your web hosting provider and ask them to set the correct file permissions for this file and/or to add a Firewall role to prevent the firewall from blocking the file. It must be allowed to be executed freely without any restrictions. Also, in Workspace Settings > Permissions, you must allow anyone to create public channels. If you have further issues please contact the Slack support team at https://api.slack.com/support.

Slack sync not working

Double check whether or not you chose a public Slack channel when you attempted to synchronize Slack. If you did not, try syncing Slack once again, this time choosing a public channel instead. The general channel is a good option.
