Multiple Hits for Channels about slackteams HOT 3 CLOSED

i am not following the issue.

Some general points though:

There is a default channel hard wired to the incoming webhook that you set with slackr-app.

If you specify another channel it will override the default.

You can use slackteams::validate_channel(label) to convert any label to the Slack ID for the active team.

from slackteams.

In slack, go to direct messages, and choose two people. That creates a private channel without a name. Within the list of channels, it contains the names of all of the people, but it isn't JUST the name of those people.

So, when you grepl for "yonicd" or whatever, it finds a bunch of channels that contain yonicd, but they aren't exactly yonicd.

Your regex is too general. It needs to search for "^yonicd$", not "yonicd".

I agree that validate_channel will do it, but you're doing some other step in slackblocks, and that step is vulnerable to this fuzzy hit. I think; it's also possible it's in validate_channel, now that I think about it (could be in both places).

this should fix the issue: 48611e6
