Upload a file to Slack using a bot connection

Hello!

How I can upload files to slack as a bot (not user behalf)?
Slack Upload a File module accepts only User connections.

Is there some way to do it?

Welcome to the Make community!

Make doesn’t have a module to upload attachments as a Slack bot.

If the external service has a Developer API Reference/Documentation then you should be able to integrate the endpoints in Make using the app’s universal module (Make an API call) or generic HTTP “Make a request” module.

You can also suggest for it to be made in the Idea exchange. Don’t forget to search for it first, just in case someone already suggested it, so that you don’t end up creating a duplicate.

If you need assistance in setting up the app’s universal module, or the generic HTTP module, please provide additional information about what you have tried with regards to the external service’s Developer API Reference – how you are setting the connection up, a link to the endpoint are you trying to connect to, and what errors you are encountering.
