Configuring the Slack App
Configuring the Slack App
There are two ways to connect to Slack, over HTTP or using Socket mode. We strongly recommend that you use Socket mode, as you can receive events via a private WebSocket, instead of a direct HTTP subscription to events. If you want to receive events directly over HTTP, you must configure your own network firewall or use some proxy servers to make sure that your Slack application of your Slack workspace in public cloud can access the messaging endpoint of Zowe Chat server from internet. For more information, see https://api.slack.com/apis/connections.
