Slack is a flexible instant messaging platform for organizations. It allows you to connect with your colleagues, share documents, and organize teams through time zones and physical spaces. It also allows teams to collaborate with images, videos, voice messages, and huddles. Slack's API has allowed it to become a highly integrated productivity tool.
In this course, you'll first get an introduction to Slack's API and the different endpoints it offers. You'll then be provided with a step-by-step guide on how to sign up for an account and retrieve the access keys.

"You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it."
