1. A method for communication channel creation, comprising:
receiving, via a user interface of cloud-based data management platform storing a plurality of data objects, a user input to generate a communication channel for a group-based communication platform that is separate from the cloud-based data management platform, wherein the communication channel is for a data object of the plurality of data objects;
retrieving, in response to receiving the user input, a group of users that are associated with the data object within the cloud-based data management platform;
displaying, via the user interface, a list of options for generating the communication channel, the list of options comprising the group of users for including in the communication channel, a privacy level for the communication channel, and an identifier of the communication channel;
generating an executable packet of instructions for ingesting into the group-based communication platform based at least in part on an input to the list of options; and
transmitting the executable packet of instructions for ingesting into the group-based communication platform.
