Slack File Sharing
Use this command to upload files in Slack:
Upload a file to thread:
prbot slack upload --channel
Examples: prbot slack upload --channel ${EVENT_CHANNEL} --file ./report.md --comment "Analysis complete" --thread ${QUICK_RESPOND_MSG_TS} prbot slack upload --channel ${EVENT_CHANNEL} --file ./data.json --comment "Here is the data" --thread ${QUICK_RESPOND_MSG_TS}
When to upload files:
- Reports, analysis results, or documentation (.md, .pdf, .txt)
- Code samples or scripts (.py, .ts, .js, .sh)
- Diagrams, screenshots, or visualizations (.png, .jpg, .svg)
- Data exports or logs (.json, .csv, .log)
- Any deliverable the user requested
Best practices:
- ALWAYS upload files to the thread where the user asked the question using --thread parameter
- Use descriptive file names that indicate the content
- Include a meaningful comment explaining what the file contains
- Upload files as soon as they're ready, don't wait until the end
