Bot for Slack Overview#

The bot for Slack allows you to build rich, interactive bots for Slack workspaces. These bots can respond to messages, post updates, and interact with users in various ways. With the bot for Slack on Pipedream, developers can create automated workflows that trigger on specific events in Slack, such as new messages or reactions, and then perform defined actions, like sending data to other apps or processing the information within Pipedream's serverless platform. This tight integration with Pipedream enables both simple and complex automations, leveraging Pipedream's ability to connect with numerous apps and its powerful built-in code steps.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/base.mjs"; import constants from "../../common/constants.mjs"; import utils from "../../common/utils.mjs"; export default { ...common, key: "slack_bot-new-message-in-channel", name: "New Message In Channel", version: "0.0.6", description: "Emit new event when a new message is posted to a public, private or group channel (Bot)", type: "source", dedupe: "unique", props: { ...common.props, channelId: { propDefinition: [ common.props.app, "conversation", () => ({ types: [ constants.CHANNEL_TYPE.PUBLIC, constants.CHANNEL_TYPE.PRIVATE, constants.CHANNEL_TYPE.MPIM, ], }), ], description: `Select the channel's ID. ${utils.CONVERSATION_PERMISSION_MESSAGE}`, }, }, methods: { ...common.methods, getResourceName() { return constants.RESOURCE_NAME.MESSAGES; }, getResourceFn() { return this.app.conversationsHistory; }, getResourceFnArgs() { return { channel: this.channelId, limit: constants.LIMIT, oldest: this.getLastTimestamp(), inclusive: false, }; }, generateMeta(resource) { return { id: resource.ts, ts: resource.ts, summary: `New Message Timestamp ${resource.ts}`, }; }, }, };
