Instance variables

var base_url

A string representing the Slack API base URL. Default is 'https://www.slack.com/api/'.

var headers

dict representing additional request headers to attach to all requests.

var proxy

String representing a fully-qualified URL to a proxy through which to route all requests to the Slack API. Even if this parameter is not specified, if any of the following environment variables are present, they will be loaded into this parameter: HTTPS_PROXY, https_proxy, HTTP_PROXY or http_proxy.

var ssl

An ssl.SSLContext instance, helpful for specifying your own custom certificate chain.

var timeout

The maximum number of seconds the client will wait to connect and receive a response from Slack. Default is 30 seconds.

var token

A string specifying an xoxp-* or xoxb-* token.

Methods

def api_call(self, api_method: str, *, http_verb: str = 'POST', files: Optional[dict] = None, data: Union[dict, aiohttp.formdata.FormData] = None, params: Optional[dict] = None, json: Optional[dict] = None, headers: Optional[dict] = None, auth: Optional[dict] = None) ‑> Union[_asyncio.Future, LegacySlackResponse]

Create a request and execute the API call to Slack.

Args

api_method : str
The target Slack API method. e.g. 'chat.postMessage'
http_verb : str
HTTP Verb. e.g. 'POST'
files : dict
Files to multipart upload. e.g. {image OR file: file_object OR file_path}
data
The body to attach to the request. If a dictionary is provided, form-encoding will take place. e.g. {'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'}
params : dict
The URL parameters to append to the URL. e.g. {'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'}
json : dict
JSON for the body to attach to the request (if files or data is not specified). e.g. {'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'}
headers : dict
Additional request headers
auth : dict
A dictionary that consists of client_id and client_secret

Returns

(SlackResponse) The server's response to an HTTP request. Data from the response can be accessed like a dict. If the response included 'next_cursor' it can be iterated on to execute subsequent requests.

Raises

SlackApiError
The following Slack API call failed: 'chat.postMessage'.
SlackRequestError
Json data can only be submitted as POST requests.

        http_verb (str): HTTP Verb. e.g. 'POST'
        files (dict): Files to multipart upload.
            e.g. {image OR file: file_object OR file_path}
        data: The body to attach to the request. If a dictionary is
            provided, form-encoding will take place.
            e.g. {'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'}
