I'm trying to create a slack app. And am planning to use a button for my slack app to give the message a better look even though the same was possible through a link in the message.
And was successful in doing so. However, i'm seeing this message:
The button is basically a link to an external site so i'm not sure if I should enable the interactive and shortcuts option in the slack api. Is there any side-effect during production, if I don't enable it?
The button component requires the
interactivity and shortcutoption to be enabled. Once you do so, clicking on this button will send a payload to your server (you could also set up a serverless function for this). Your server will need to respond back with an acknowledgment response.If you don't enable interactivity and shortcut, users will also see this error message in your screenshot.
