Sending Slack notifications from Scenario script
![rmnvncnt](https://us.v-cdn.net/6038231/uploads/Dataiku/nAvatar14.png)
Hello,
I'm trying to send custom slack notifications using the scenario Python API, but I could not find documentation on the webhook parameters. Here, "slack_error_staging" is already configured (and working). I'm going for something like this :
sender = scenario.get_message_sender("slack_error_staging") sender.send( sender="romain", message="foo", mode="incoming_webhook", url="https://hooks.slack.com/services/stuff" )
I don't know what value should be used for the "mode" parameter to elicit the expected behavior. I don't know if "url" is the correct spelling either.
Best,
Romain

The actual parameters are :
sender.send( username="romain", message="Test", mode="WEBHOOK", webhookUrl="https://hooks.slack.com/services/stuff" )

Docs for this method need to be updated/fleshed out -- they are pretty nonexistent. Docstring on the class itself in install is also just a one liner. Hard to tell what we can use unless we back up into other methods being called in source.

Hey @importthepandas
I think there is some additional documentation on this subject if I am not mistaken (and maybe I am):Note that Slack uses a specific format for its messages, and leaves html as-is.
I hope this helps!

I am afraid @CoreyS
you are mistaken. Those docs do not explain how to use the python sdk (`dataiku`) to send a message. `dataiku.scenario.Scenario().get_message_sender()` is not satisfactorily documented and worse `dataiku.scenario.messaging.ScenarioMessageSender.send()` is not documented AT ALL as far as I can see. So I have no idea where the parameter values in the accepted answer are sourced. -

Hi @bantucaravan
thank you for your feedback and sorry that you did not find this particular thread useful. I will surface your feedback internally in terms of document improvement. -
Thank you, from another thread I was shown this documentation which does partially answer the question of what parameters to use with sender.send()
