Can't find slack channel in the Pick a Channel dropdown

I’m creating a Zap that posts to a slack channel, i’ve connected a Slack account, but when searching for the channel I can see many channels, but not the specific channel I’m looking for. 
Is there anything I need to do in order for a Slack channel to appear in the dropdown?
Thanks!

Likely related to the issues Slack is having per the Slack Status page: https://status.slack.com/

You can try inputting the static value for the Slack Channel ID.

Thanks @Troy Tessalone , I have access to the channel (it’s a public channel), and have also tried using it’s ID in the search, and still nothing…

I also tried adding the Zapier slack app to the channel.

Hi @HoneyBook Zaps 

Good question.

Make sure you have access to the Slack Channel.

You can try inputting the static value for the Slack Channel ID.

You can find the Slack Channel ID by right clicking on the Slack Channel in the left rail, then go to Copy.
