Slack File Node

The Slack File Node uploads a file to a Slack channel.

Configuration

• Token, required: a Slack access token for the desired server.

• Channel, required: the channel that will receive the message, without a preceding # character.

• Message: an optional message to include with the file.

• File to send, required: the file to upload to Slack.

Output

The node does not modify the payload.

Example

This example gathers information about currently-connected ingesters and formats that information into a text representation, then runs a Gravwell query. It then combines the search output and the ingester information into a PDF file and uploads that file to a Slack channel.

The Text Template node is configured with the following template:

Connected Ingesters:
{{ range .gravwell_ingesters }}
{{ .Name }} {{ .Version }} {{ .RemoteAddress }} {{ .Uptime }} {{ .UUID }}
{{ end }}

The output in Slack looks like this:
