Exam Outline

💡 In Notion, convert each domain row into a toggle to nest your study notes underneath.

Suggested Study Path

1. Review the official guide to internalize the domain weights; notice that Policies and Settings and Enablement carry nearly half the score.
2. Complete the Trailhead Prep Course specifically the Slack-Con-201 modules which offer ~20 hours of targeted workshop-style content.
3. Get hands-on in a Sandbox to practice configuring Enterprise Grid settings and testing Slack Discovery API or Audit Logs scenarios.
4. Practice scenario-based questions that force you to choose the “best” consulting advice rather than just the technically possible one.
5. Study the Summer ’24 Release notes to ensure your knowledge of features like Slack Canvas and Agentforce is current.

Watch Out For

• Technical tunnel vision. Don’t focus solely on setup; the exam heavily weights change management and user adoption strategies.
• Security oversights. You must know the specific nuances between Compliance Export, Corporate Export, and Discovery API capabilities.
• Generic channel advice. Be ready to defend specific channel naming conventions and governance models based on unique client scenarios.
• Ignoring the Grid. This exam is geared toward Enterprise Grid. Basic Pro or Business+ knowledge will not be sufficient for architecture questions.

Get the cert, then get the Grid. Just remember: if there isn’t a naming convention, it’s not a workspace—it’s a digital junk drawer.
