To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger

Description:Emit new event when a new message is posted to one or more channels
Version:1.0.14
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. When 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 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:

    send critical alerts to mobile users as well as desktops.

    destination, such as SMS, email, and webhooks.
  • Instant Messaging System: Pushover can be used to create an instant messaging
    system for any mobile or desktop user.
  • Automatic Notifications: Pushover can be used to automatically send
    notifications to users based on triggers or timers.
  • Event Tracking: Pushover can be used to track events and send notifications
    when those events occur.

Messagemessagestring

The notification message

Retryretryinteger

How often, in seconds, Pushover will send the same notification. In a situation where your user might be in a noisy environment or sleeping, retrying the notification (with sound and vibration) will help get his or her attention. This parameter must have a value of at least 30 seconds between retries.

Expireexpireinteger

Notification expiration time, in seconds. If the notification has not been acknowledged in expire seconds, it will be marked as expired and will stop being sent to the user. Note that the notification is still shown to the user after it is expired, but it will not prompt the user for acknowledgement. This parameter must have a maximum value of at most 10800 seconds (3 hours).

Callbackcallbackstring

A publicly-accessible URL that Pushover will send a request to when the user has acknowledged the notification

Titletitlestring
