Support for App Home Tabs
I am creating a slack app using this framework and would like to enquire as to whether it is possible to publish a view to the app home tab at this stage? If not is this on the roadmap?
Thanks in advance.
Hello! It is not currently possible to expose App Home in the new api.slack.com/automation platform, nor is it on the roadmap (yet) as we are still gathering data around what sorts of use cases this feature would handle and if/how it interacts with other features.
Speaking of, if you want to share what kind of things you would potentially want to build with this feature, we'd love to hear!
Thanks for the response. In essence I wanted to create a slack app that allowed "admins" to create and maintain records using shortcuts, and the allow users to view those records on the apps home screen, ideally with the ability to filter the records.
Is there any expected timeline for this feature to be deployed .
We are also looking for this feature where the bot can listen to App Home Opened events .
The Use-case we were looking for is to add the ChannelId of the Bot to MessagePosted event trigger dynamically so the app listens to the messages posted to the bot and respond to the User .
No expected timeline here, and the reason is that the UX of how Workflows fit in needs some serious reorganization and thinking. Our Design team has this on their roadmap but no specific timelines or commitments yet as far as I know.
