Message received
Webhook
A chat message addressed to the app.
Webhooks are delivered only when:
- Someone sends a direct message (DM) to the app
- The app is added to a chat group (channel) and that group receives messages
- Someone @mentions the app in a message
The Events API does NOT deliver every chat message in the account—only those where the app is a participant or mentioned.
Available events:
chat:message:dm— Direct messages to the appchat:message:channel— Messages in groups where the app is a memberchat:message:mention— Messages that @mention the app (useful for bots that only respond when called)
