Microsoft Agents Hosting - Slack

Integration library for building Slack agents using the Microsoft 365 Agents SDK.

    await slack.call(
        context,
        "chat.postMessage",
        {
            "channel": channel_data.get("event.channel"),

Key Classes

• SlackAgentExtension — registers Slack-channel-scoped message/event handlers; exposes call(...) and create_stream(...).
• SlackChannelData — typed wrapper around Bot Service's Slack channel-data payload with get(path) / try_get(path) accessors.
• SlackApi — async HTTP client for the Slack Web API.
• SlackStream — wraps Slack's streaming methods for incremental message updates.
• SlackHelpers — encode/decode and conversation-id parsing utilities.
