how to get username like "Jonh" instead of WLLACM2HK??
code
starterbot_id = web_client.api_call("auth.test")["user_id"]
print("starterbot id------->"+starterbot_id))
current output for above code
starterbot id------->WLLACM2HK
I want code to print something like below output
starterbot id------->Jonh
data in web_client.api_call("auth.test")
{
'ok': True,
'url': 'https: //bby-sandbox-general.slack.com/',
'team': 'SandboxGeneralWorkspace',
'user': 'ipt-autobot',
'team_id': 'TFHGD33RV',
'user_id': 'WLLACM2HK',
'bot_id': 'BLDVB7EKB',
'enterprise_id': 'EFGBDRLNP',
'warning': 'superfluous_charset',
'response_metadata': {
'warnings': [
'superfluous_charset'
]
}
}
I feel im not calling the right api , because i dont see the username in above json , the user attribute is actually the name of the slack bot , im looking to print the user who is texting in the slack bot
on trying print(web_client.users_info(user=user))
{

how grab real_name value and print it?
I am just working on it, If you have user_id
then you can use user.info
method to get specific user information.
