New Interaction Events (Instant) on Slack (legacy)

Description:Emit new events on new Slack [interactivity events](https://api.slack.com/interactivity) sourced from [Block Kit interactive elements](https://api.slack.com/interactivity/components), [Slash commands](https://api.slack.com/interactivity/slash-commands), or [Shortcuts](https://api.slack.com/interactivity/shortcuts).

New Interaction Events (Instant) Overview#

Slack messages can contain interactive elements like buttons, dropdowns, radio buttons, and more. This source subscribes to interactive events, like when a button is clicked in a message.

Example of a Slack button

Then this source will be triggered when you or another Slack user in your workspace clicks a button, selects an option or fills out a form.

Example feed of interaction events coming from Slack

With this trigger, you can build workflows that perform some work with other APIs or services, and then reply back to the original message.

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 (legacy)	`slack`	`app`	This component uses the Slack (legacy) app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Action IDs	`action_ids`	`string[]`	Filter interaction events by specific `action_id`'s to subscribe for new interaction events. If none are specified, all `action_ids` created via Pipedream will emit new events.
Channels	`conversations`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
	`slackApphook`	`$.interface.apphook`

Trigger Authentication#

Slack (legacy) uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Slack (legacy) account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Slack (legacy) 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 (legacy) 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:userfiles:readcommandsusers.profile:writeusers.profile:readsearch:read
