Slack members then have the ability to subscribe (or unsubscribe) to these channels at their own will. I can move all that into Slack massages and have those scripts start posting to channels using some fairly basic PowerShell code. So instead of having to deal with the legacy approach of SMTP servers and email addresses to send notifications and status updates of automation tasks and processes. When can then post to that URL using a JSON payload. When we create an incoming webhook we are generated a unique URL. It’s a way for us to have an app, script, or just an automated process trigger an event that will post a message to a Slack channel. In the case of Slack and Incoming Webhooks. Webhooks are similar to APIs, just a little simpler in use. One way has been looking at ways to replace scripted email notifications and status updates of automation and maintenance tasks, by using Slack Apps / Bots leveraging Incoming Webhooks.
Rather than fight this like some, I’ve looked to embrace it. As our Slack workspaces and channels grow, so to does Slack become our go to app for information. For many of us it’s even become a place to socialise with friends outside of the workplace. Similar to desktop, you can then choose your preferred date and time.Love it or hate it, Slack has become an incredibly popular communication and collaboration tool in the enterprise. Once done, long-press on the paper plane icon or the ‘ Send‘ button on the app and you will see the message scheduling UI pops up. Open the Slack mobile app, and go to the chat or channel and type your message. The steps for using Schedule message feature on Android or iOS are pretty much the same. Click on the downward arrow and a new popup will appear giving you a couple of default options, but you can also select a custom date and time to send the message. Only after you type the message, you will notice a new downward arrow icon next to the “Send” button. To use Schedule message feature on desktop, open the Slack channel or chat window of the person you would like to text and type the message. Users can now Schedule messages on custom date and time – for up to 120 days in advanced. Yes, you heard it right, Slack has finally added a long-requested feature – scheduled messages feature in the desktop and mobile app.
