Map Slack Email Address to Sketchboard User

Sketchboard for Slack integration used to require to have a same email address on Slack and on Sketchboard. Many users have by mistake chosen first e.g. gmail email address, since it is easy to login on Sketchboard using your Google account.

Now you can add your Slack email address on Sketchboard and then Sketchboard maps your Slack user to your Sketchboard user. Earlier without the mapping you would have received an error message from the integration that you are not found on Sketchboard and you should sign up.

Mapping is needed when you use Sketchboard slash command that creates a new board from Slack on Sketchboard.
