Invalid scope requested: chat:write:bot

Question

I am implementing slack bot where user will execute the slash command and bot will post the ephemeral message to the chhanel.

Bot should be able to respond even to the private channels if user sends the slash command in private channel.

I implemented it with classic slack oauth flow and I was able to implement it using "chat:write:bot" command and now I want to upgrade oauth flow to v2 in which I am unable to request "chat:write:bot" command.

How can I request "chat:write:bot" scope in oauth v2? Or is there any another work around for this?

Answer 1

Try requesting chat:write instead of chat:write:bot scope: chat:write should work in Oauth v2 and it is used to send messages into channels.
