I am trying to get the bot_id value for a bot when it has no conversation history.
According to the documentation:
the bot_id fields appear in bot_message message event subtypes and in the response of methods like conversations.history.
This makes sense and works.
But is it possible to get this bot_id value, when a bot has no conversation history?
For example, say the channel between Slackbot and my bot has no conversation history. The response of a conversations.history request to this channel is the following, which does not include the bot_id value.
{
"ok": true,
"channel": {
"id": "DC6N8Q1BK",
"created": 1534129098,
"is_im": true,
"is_org_shared": false,
"user": "USLACKBOT",
"last_read": "0000000000.000000",
"latest": null,
"unread_count": 0,
"unread_count_display": 0,
"is_open": true,
"priority": 0
}
}
Any other way to get the bot_id value?
