Sending variables

There are different techniques to send data into Slack and whichever one is chosen will require a certain set of customized inputs, as described later.

You can provide data to send to Slack from this GitHub Action and either source:

  • The default event context with a payload matching the GitHub event.
  • A custom payload with optional variables provided in the GitHub Action step.

These input options are valid for all techniques, but some techniques require specific constraints with certain requirements for valid inputs.

Additional configurations and other details are also available for more customizations to the provided payload.
