## Usage info {#usage-info}

This event will fire if you use the [conversations.inviteShared](https://docs.slack.dev/reference/methods/conversations.inviteshared.md) API call with the `user_ids` argument to invite a bot or an app to a Slack Connect channel. This will not fire if you invite a user via email.

This example includes both the [event wrapper](https://docs.slack.dev/apis/events-api.md#callback-field) and the [event structure](https://docs.slack.dev/apis/events-api.md#event-type-structure) for the `shared_channel_invite_received` event.
