Inputs

  • Name (required) — A unique name for the User Group.
  • Handle — A unique mention handle for the User Group, distinct from channels and users.
  • Description — A short description of the User Group.
  • Channel Names or IDs — A selection of Slack channel IDs or names to set as the default channels for the User Group.
  • Include Count — Whether to include the number of users in the User Group in the response; defaults to true.

The response includes details of the created User Group. The 'include_count' option controls presence of user count in the returned data. Errors will surface on validation issues such as non-unique names or handles.

Examples

Set Name to 'dev-team', Handle to 'devs', Description as desired, select desired Channels under 'Channel Names or IDs', and leave 'Include Count' as true.
