Usage info

The hello event is sent when a connection is opened to the message server.

This example includes both the event wrapper and the event structure for the hello event.

{
    "token": "XXYYZZ",
    "team_id": "T123ABC456",
    "api_app_id": "A123ABC456",
    "event": {
        "type": "hello"
    },
    "type": "event_callback",
    "authorizations": [
        {
            "team_id": "T123ABC456",
            "user_id": "U123ABC456",
            "is_bot": false,
            "is_enterprise_install": false,
        }
    ],
    "event_id": "Ev123ABC456",
    "event_time": 123456789
}

This allows a client to confirm the connection has been correctly opened.
