Slash commands allow you to send a request to a web server when users type a command in slack (for example: /wakeup). This can be used to resume a free heroku instance if it has been killed. JeopardyBot includes an endpoint (/slash) that can be used for slash commands.

  1. Click here to create a new slash command.
  2. Under "Integration Settings", enter the URL for the slash command (generally something like https://<appname>.herokuapp.com/slash). You can also fill out any other information about the integration.
  3. Try out your slack command in any channel. The response from the server will not show for any other users.
