New Message In Channels (Instant) on Slack

Description:Emit new event when a new message is posted to one or more channels

Version:1.0.22

Key:slack-new-message-in-channels

Slack Overview#

The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.

The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.

Automate posting updates to your team channels
Create a bot to answer common questions
Integrate with your existing tools and services
And much more!

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Slack	`slack`	`app`	This component uses the Slack app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Channels	`conversations`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
	`slackApphook`	`$.interface.apphook`
Resolve Names	`resolveNames`	`boolean`	Instead of returning `channel`, `team`, and `user` as IDs, return their human-readable names.
Ignore Bots	`ignoreBot`	`boolean`	Ignore messages from bots
Ignore replies in threads	`ignoreThreads`	`boolean`	Ignore replies to messages in threads

Trigger Authentication#

Slack uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Slack account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Slack and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Slack API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

channels:historychannels:readchannels:writeemoji:readgroups:historygroups:readgroups:writeim:historyim:readim:writelinks:readlinks:writempim:historympim:readmpim:writereactions:readreactions:writereminders:readreminders:writestars:readteam:readusergroups:readusergroups:writeusers:readusers:read.emailusers:writechat:write:botchat:write:userfiles:write:usercommandsusers.profile:writeusers.profile:read

About Slack#

Slack is a channel-based messaging platform. With Slack, people can work together more effectively, connect all their software tools and services, and find the information they need to do their best work — all within a secure, enterprise-grade environment.

Scale AI Overview#

Scale AI offers an API to automate and streamline data labeling for machine learning applications, providing access to a global workforce and sophisticated tools. With Scale AI's API on Pipedream, you can integrate scalable data annotation workflows directly into your apps. Trigger tasks, manage datasets, and receive annotated data, all within Pipedream's serverless platform. This enables seamless automation of labeling tasks, integration with machine learning pipelines, and real-time updates on annotations.

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Scale AI	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Scale AI app.
Project	`project`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Batch	`batch`	`string`	The name of the batch to associate this task with. Note that if a batch is specified, you need not specify the project, as the task will automatically be associated with the batch's project. For Scale Rapid projects specifying a batch is required. See Batches section for more details.
Instruction	`instruction`	`string`	A markdown-enabled string or iframe embedded Google Doc explaining how to do the task. You can use markdown to show example images, give structure to your instructions, and more. See our instruction best practices for more details. For Scale Rapid projects, DO NOT set this field unless you specifically want to override the project level instructions.
Callback URL	`callbackUrl`	`string`	The full url (including the scheme `http://` or `https://`) or email address of the callback that will be used when the task is completed.
Title	`title`	`string`	The title of the task to be shown to scalers.
Description	`description`	`string`	The description of the task to be shown to scalers.
Responses Required	`responsesRequired`	`integer`	The number of responses required for the task to build consensus before returning the callback response. Upper bound of 100.
Priority	`priority`	`integer`	A value of 10, 20, or 30 that defines the priority of a task within a project. The higher the number, the higher the priority.
Unique ID	`uniqueId`	`string`	A arbitrary ID that you can assign to a task and then query for later. This ID must be unique across all projects under your account, otherwise the task submission will be rejected. See Avoiding Duplicate Tasks for more details.
Clear Unique ID on Error	`clearUniqueIdOnError`	`boolean`	If set to be true, if a task errors out after being submitted, the Unique ID on the task will be unset. This param allows workflows where you can re-submit the same Unique ID to recover from errors automatically.
Number of Fields	`numberOfFields`	`integer`	The number of fields to be labeled
Number of Attachments	`numberOfAttachments`	`integer`	The number of attachments to be labeled
