Working example of a slack connection string?

[millermarkj]

The documentation doesn't make clear exactly how to build a slack connection string, and the generator barfs when trying to build one if you put any input whatsoever into the "token" field.

Can somebody provide me a working example of a slack connection string? I have a standard bot with "xoxb-" style token. Is that what the input is looking for? It seems like it wants that broken into three parts, but nothing I've tried is working.

Edit: Ok, after noting a closed item in Issues (#90), it appears that the connection string needs to be in the format of a slack webhook, not an API key. So theoretically, the format would be:

slack://A1B234CDE/Z12345Y123Q/ABCD1lmnoPqr0tuVwXYz

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work:

# curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/health/notify
{"errors":["thumb_url is not a valid config key [color title]"],"success":false}

This is still essentially undocumented and should be fixed.

I've opened a new issue for this instead. #165

The Webhook URL have the following format (from https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks#create_a_webhook):

https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

the corresponding Shoutrrr URL for slack would be:

slack://T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Which, I believe, is what you tried above. The error you get: thumb_url is not a valid config key [color title] is due to whatever is using Shoutrrr sending it the configuration key thumb_url which is not a known property.

I will address the rest in the issue.
