Continuing the discussion from 3.1.0.beta2: Security fixes, new API scopes and more :
This is great! Thank you! A question, though, is it possible to change the slug of the channel post-creation? I do realize there’s no such setting in the GUI, and am asking if there’s some command in console that can do that and/or whether such action is too risky and it’s better to create a new channel.

There’s something in the works for this which should land on tests-passed in the not too distant future:
discourse:main
← discourse:feature/allow-edit-channel-slug
opened 06:06AM - 23 Jan 23 UTC
This commit introduces the ability to edit the channel
slug from the About tab … for the chat channel when the user
is admin. Similar to the create channel modal functionality
introduced in 641e94fc3c15c12217e2463a2dc393638ddeb534, if
the slug is left empty then we autogenerate a slug based
on the channel name, and if the user just changes the slug
manually we use that instead.
We do not do any link remapping or anything else of the
sort, when the category slug is changed that does not happen
either.
