Hey, is there ETA for when slack socket mode will be supported natively?
Currently, I am using a community node for it, but it seems that there maybe be some memory leak issues? We are running our production server in queue mode and sometimes triggering the workflow spams the workers and the whole service gets stuck - no one can execute any workflow and the only solution is to restart the workers.
If there would be a native node for it it would be great (maybe there is a reason it is not supported?)
Or if you know what could be the issue for the memory leak…
The issue you’re experiencing with memory leaks is likely due to the community node implementation rather than n8n core. There’s no official ETA for native Slack Socket Mode support yet, but you might want to check the n8n roadmap or create a feature request on GitHub.
For a temporary solution, you could try:
1. Monitoring memory usage to identify the leak source
2. Setting up automatic worker restarts when memory thresholds are reached
3. Considering a webhook-based approach instead of socket mode if possible
The n8n team prioritizes native integrations based on demand, so adding your vote to existing requests could help accelerate development.
