## Treat Slack actions as tools |
```ts |
import { createTool } from "@voltagent/core"; |
import { VoltOpsClient } from "@voltagent/core"; |
import { z } from "zod"; |
const voltops = new VoltOpsClient({ |
publicKey: process.env.VOLTAGENT_PUBLIC_KEY!, |
secretKey: process.env.VOLTAGENT_SECRET_KEY!, |
}); |
export const postSlackUpdate = createTool({ |
name: "postSlackUpdate", |
description: "Post a Slack message to a channel or DM.", |
parameters: z.object({ |
text: z.string(), |
channelId: z.string().optional(), |
userName: z.string().optional(), |
threadTs: z.string().optional(), |
}), |
execute: async ({ text, channelId, userName, threadTs }) => { |
return await voltops.actions.slack.postMessage({ |
credential: { credentialId: process.env.SLACK_CREDENTIAL_ID! }, |
channelId: channelId ?? process.env.SLACK_DEFAULT_CHANNEL_ID!, |
targetType: userName ? "user" : "conversation", |
userName: userName ?? undefined, |
text, |
threadTs, |
linkNames: true, |
}); |
}, |
}); |
``` |
Agents can add the tool to their toolset to post progress updates, DM owners, or attach reactions as |
they work through a task. |
## Testing payloads in the console |
- Open **Volt Console β Actions β Add Action** and pick the Slack action you want to test. |
- Attach the Slack credential and choose defaults (channel/user modes, thread timestamp, etc.). |
- Use the **Payload & Test** editor to try text, blocks, attachments, or reactions; successful runs |
show the raw Slack response plus a copy-pasteable SDK snippet. |
- Use console runs to capture the `messageTs` you need for delete/update/permalink or reaction |
actions. |
## Troubleshooting |
- `channel_not_found` or `not_in_channel` usually means the bot is not invited to that channel or |
lacks `chat:write` scope. |
- DM and ephemeral messages require a `userId` or `userName`; ephemeral also needs the channel ID. |
- `messageTs` values come from Slack responses (e.g., `chat.postMessage`); reuse them for delete, |
update, permalink, and reaction actions. |
- Blocks and attachments must be arrays; if you paste JSON strings, ensure they parse to arrays. |
- Custom reactions should omit colons (use `eyes` or `name:emoji_id`). |
- Check **Volt β Actions β Runs** to inspect payloads, metadata, retries, and provider errors. |

# Discord Actions |
Use Discord actions to announce deploys, coordinate incidents, or manage guild resources without |
touching the Discord REST API. VoltOps supports bot-token actions for full control plus a lightweight |
webhook action for simple notifications. |
## Prerequisites |
1. Discord application with a bot token. Invite the bot to the guild(s) you plan to use and grant |
permissions for the actions you need (Send Messages, Manage Channels, Manage Roles, Add |
Reactions, etc.). |
2. (Optional) Discord incoming webhook URL if you only need to post messages via webhook. |
3. A Volt project with API keys (`pk_β¦`, `sk_β¦`). |
4. Discord credential inside Volt: **Settings β Integrations β Add Credential β Discord**, then pick |
**Bot Token** or **Webhook** and save. Volt generates a `cred_xxx` identifier. |
5. (Recommended) Store defaults as environment variables: |
```bash |
DISCORD_CREDENTIAL_ID=cred_bot_xxx |
DISCORD_WEBHOOK_CREDENTIAL_ID=cred_webhook_xxx |
DISCORD_DEFAULT_GUILD_ID=123456789012345678 |
DISCORD_DEFAULT_CHANNEL_ID=123456789012345678 |
DISCORD_DEFAULT_THREAD_ID=987654321098765432 |
``` |
## Available actions |
- `discord.sendMessage` / `discord.sendWebhookMessage` |
- `discord.deleteMessage`, `discord.getMessage`, `discord.listMessages` |
- `discord.reactToMessage`, `discord.removeReaction` |
- `discord.createChannel`, `discord.updateChannel`, `discord.deleteChannel` |
- `discord.getChannel`, `discord.listChannels` |
- `discord.listMembers` |
- `discord.addMemberRole`, `discord.removeMemberRole` |
Message + channel actions require a bot token; webhook messages only require a webhook credential. |
