Can you add more logging please: It should make it clearer https://github.com/jenkinsci/slack-plugin#enable-additional-logging

Is there a url logged on where the request is going? you can *** out the token.

Try add org.apache.http to the loggers https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-4.5.x/logging.html

can you please screenshot your configuration?

I’ll try test it out tonight
