Slack bot

Hi,

We're building a Slack bot with Workato. We want to introduce the bot by sending a welcome message to a specific Slack channel, where we include a link to the bot. Users in that channel will see the message in the channel and be able to click on the link to go to the bot's home page. The question is, how can we achieve this, how to get a generic link to the bot that we can include in the message? 

Thank you very much for all the possible help and/or guidance.

Could you please provide more details about the following: "We want to introduce the bot by sending a welcome message to a specific Slack channel"? Do you want the bot to introduce itself when it is added to a Slack channel, or when a user sends a "hi" message to the bot in a specific channel?

Use this link, replace TEAMID with your workplace's ID and replace APPID with your app's ID.
