Parameters

14 parameters

Name	Type	Description
conversationrequired	string	Select a public or private channel, or a user or group
textrequired	string	If you're using `blocks`, this is used as a fallback string to display in notifications. If you aren't, this is the main body text of the message. It can be formatted as plain text, or with mrkdwn.
mrkdwn	boolean	`true` by default. Pass `false` to disable Slack markup parsing. See docs here
attachments	string	A JSON-based array of structured attachments, presented as a URL-encoded string (e.g., `[{"pretext": "pre-hello", "text": "text-world"}]`).
parse	string	Change how messages are treated. Defaults to none. By default, URLs will be hyperlinked. Set `parse` to `none` to remove the hyperlinks. The behavior of `parse` is different for text formatted with `mrkdwn`. By default, or when `parse` is set to `none`, `mrkdwn` formatting is implemented. To ignore `mrkdwn` formatting, set `parse` to full.
link_names	boolean	Find and link channel names and usernames.
as_user	boolean	Optionally pass `true` to post the message as the authenticated user, instead of as a bot. Defaults to `false`.
post_at	string	Messages can only be scheduled up to 120 days in advance, and cannot be scheduled for the past. The datetime should be in ISO 8601 format. (Example: `2014-01-01T00:00:00Z`)
include_sent_via_pipedream_flag	boolean	Defaults to `true`, includes a link to Pipedream at the end of your Slack message.
customizeBotSettings	boolean	Customize the username and/or icon of the Bot
replyToThread	boolean	Reply to an existing thread
addMessageMetadata	boolean	Set the metadata event type and payload
configureUnfurlSettings	boolean	Configure settings for unfurling links and media
passArrayOrConfigure	enum	Would you like to reference an array of blocks from a previous step (for example, `{{steps.blocks.$return_value}}`), or configure them in this action?
