Slack and API Plugin - Simple Chat Bot Post

Hi folks, I’m trying to do a very simple Bot post via Slack to a specific channel using their Incoming Webhooks. I’ve built the webhook in Slack, tested it in Postman (works great). It’s simply a URL that authenticates and goes to a single channel. I add {“text”: “Test message”} to the raw body, and voila. It posts.

I can’t figure out how to do this with @Taiheta’s plugin, or if there’s a better method. Appreciate some guidance here!

Cheers,
Al

Trying to just use the Bubble API now, but can’t get it to Initialize for some reason. Here’s the setup:

Throwing this error:

Again, it’s working fine in Postman…

Thanks for any help!

ARGH. I hate typos.

I needed this:
{“text”: “Testing?”}

…not this:
{“text”, “Testing?”}

Hi @ALB,

I am doing the same as your screenshot and am getting the following error message when initializing.

However, when I look in the Slack channel, the application is posting the message inside the slack channel.

Do you know what I am doing wrong? I am new to APIs.

Thanks!
Joel

This is my setup:

Honestly not sure. Maybe try a different Data Type since it doesn’t seem to be returning JSON for you?

Thanks! Yes, I changed it to return a Text and it worked!
