Filetype is not available immediately after uploading a file

Inizia con la sequenza di upload e la Slack files.completeUploadExternal response mostrata nell’issue, quindi confrontala con il chat.postMessage error e l’image block payload. Non viene indicato alcun file del repository né alcun test, quindi determina innanzitutto se questo comportamento appartiene all’action o alla Slack API integration; il lavoro è completato quando la causa e un percorso di correzione riproducibile sono documentati.

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:

The Output is displaying:

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?
