Basic Slack App Example

This is a basic, fully customizable example Slack app that you can install into your Slack workspace in just a few clicks by deploying it to Autocode. Right out of the box, your app will:

Respond to a Slack slash command called hello by sending a reply message from the app containing whatever text follows the command.
Send a friendly welcome message to users who join a new channel in your Slack workspace.

This behavior is completely customizable by editing the app code. The only things you'll need are an Autocode account and a Slack workspace!

Hello Command

Once installed, typing /cmd hello <text> will trigger /functions/events/slack/command/hello.js and provide an output that look like this:

Member Joined Channel Handler

When a member joins a public channel, your app will respond to the resulting member_joined_channel event from Slack by running /functions/events/slack/member_joined_channel.js. This will generate a message like this:

Thank You!
