Línea de trabajo

Empieza con la secuencia de carga y la Slack files.completeUploadExternal response mostradas en el issue, y luego compárala con el chat.postMessage error y el image block payload. No se menciona ningún archivo del repositorio ni ningún test, así que determina primero si este comportamiento corresponde a la action o a la Slack API integration; se considera terminado cuando la causa y una ruta de corrección reproducible estén documentadas.

Descripción

docs question

Hi All,

I am trying to send slack message with image from github action, but it is failing everytime. First let me explain, what I am trying to achieve:

  • Upload an image in slack
  • Extract the permalink of the uploaded image
  • Then add that permalink into slack message and send

All these steps are working fine, except it fails to send the message with image. Let me share the code:

Upload image and extract permalink:

`      # 📤 Upload Doughnut Chart to Slack & Get Image URL
      - name: Upload Chart to Slack
        if: always()
        run: |
          response=$(curl -s -X POST \
            -H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.SLACK_BOT_TOKEN }}" \
            -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
            --data "filename=test_results.png&length=$(stat -c%s test_results.png)" \
            https://slack.com/api/files.getUploadURLExternal)

          echo "Slack Upload URL Response: $response"

          upload_url=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.upload_url')
          file_id=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.file_id')

          if [ "$upload_url" == "null" ] || [ "$file_id" == "null" ]; then
            echo "⚠️ Failed to get upload URL from Slack."
            exit 1
          fi

          # Step 2: Upload the file to the received URL
          upload_response=$(curl -X POST \
            -H "Content-Type: image/png" \
            -F file=@test_results.png \
            "$upload_url")

          echo "Slack File Upload Response: $upload_response"

          # Step 3: Complete the upload and get the file permalink
          complete_response=$(curl -s -X POST \
            -H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.SLACK_BOT_TOKEN }}" \
            -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
            -d '{
                  "files": [{"id": "'"$file_id"'", "title": "Test Results"}]
                }' \
            https://slack.com/api/files.completeUploadExternal)

          echo "Slack Complete Upload Response: $complete_response"

          image_url=$(echo "$complete_response" | jq -r '.files[0].permalink')

          if [ "$image_url" == "null" ]; then
            echo "⚠️ Failed to upload image to Slack."
            exit 1
          else
            echo "✅ Image uploaded: $image_url"
            echo "IMAGE_URL=$image_url" >> $GITHUB_ENV
          fi`

The output it displays:

Image

Send slack message with image:

        if: always()

            }' \
            https://slack.com/api/chat.postMessage`

The Output is displaying:

Image

As per the error it is saying that filetype is missing. If you see the output after uploading the image, then you will also see filetype is missing. I do not know if that is the issue. If that is issue, why image filetype is not setting when uploaded by slack api? Any idea or solution?
