Is there any documentation on interacting with the Slack resource with python?
Windmill is a good tool and it's solving problems for us.

You are correct. I was being unnecessarily confrontational. I'm sorry for that. My frustration about how windmill works with slack was getting to me. I also do understand that it's a small team, and honestly, I was only annoyed that the resource was unnecessarily hidden, not that it wasn't going to be fixed asap. There's a simple workaround.

I appreciate the "Complaints? Submit a PR." take, but no, It's just a default resource called slack_bot with a single variable: token. I don't have the internal knowledge about windmill to unwind whatever is hiding that until the slack connection is made, nor do I understand the UX decisions behind hiding a resource until a non-related oauth connection to slack is made. I'll try to submit a request to our account manager and see how that goes. For now, I've created my own c_slack_bot resource.

Why can't the slack_bot resource just be available? Why are you forced to connect your workspace to slack just to create a resource for a bot token.
