How to Build a Scheduling Slack Bot in 5 Minutes
Key point
This explains in detail the process from creating a Slack bot to composing Block-kit messages and integrating the Google Calendar API.
Details
This shares the entire process of building a Slack bot, using KakaoPay's Jordy Meeting Bot as an example. It starts with creating an app via the Slack API and setting up the necessary permissions, Scopes.
When setting up Scopes, it is important to define clear permissions from the start. If the app has to be reinstalled due to incorrect settings, it can cause service interruptions or user confusion. During development, you can quickly build using the Slack Bolt framework, or implement WebSockets directly depending on your learning goals.
The message UI is composed using Block-kit. Using the Inspect feature and Block kit builder allows you to visually check the message structure and test it in JSON format efficiently.
Finally, for Google Calendar API integration, the OAuth2 Authorization Code Grant Type method is used. This exchanges the user's authorization code for an access token, enabling secure management of meeting schedules.
