Args
logger
- The custom logger that can be used in this app.
name

process_before_response
- True if this app runs on Function as a Service. (Default: False)
raise_error_for_unhandled_request
- True if you want to raise exceptions for unhandled requests and use @app.error listeners instead of the built-in handler, which pints warning logs and returns 404 to Slack (Default: False)
signing_secret
- The Signing Secret value used for verifying requests from Slack.
token
- The bot/user access token required only for single-workspace app.
token_verification_enabled
- Verifies the validity of the given token if True.
client
- The singleton
slack_sdk.WebClient
instance for this app. authorize
- The function to authorize an incoming request from Slack by checking if there is a team/user in the installation data.
installation_store
- The module offering save/find operations of installation data
installation_store_bot_only
- Use
InstallationStore#find_bot()
if True (Default: False) oauth_settings
- The settings related to Slack app installation flow (OAuth flow)
oauth_flow
- Instantiated
slack_bolt.oauth.OAuthFlow
