Hey 👋🏻, I'm trying for a quite some time now to send a file using this Slack Action.

Here's the code.

name: 'Slack Notification Test'

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
    slack_notification:
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:

            - name: Checkout ⚙️
              uses: actions/checkout@v3


            - name: Slack Notification
              uses: rtCamp/action-slack-notify@v2.3.0
              env:
                SLACK_CHANNEL: testes-de-automations
                SLACK_COLOR: ${{ job.status }} # or a specific color like 'good' or '#ff00ff'
                SLACK_ICON: https://github.com/rtCamp.png?size=48
                SLACK_MESSAGE: ${{ GITHUB.event.commits.message }}
                SLACK_TITLE: 'Commit from: ${{ github.repository }}'
                SLACK_USERNAME: ${{ github.actor}}
                SLACK_FILE_UPLOAD: .github/workflows/test.txt
                SLACK_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SLACK_TOKEN }}
                # SLACK_WEBHOOK: ${{ secrets.SLACK_KEY_URL }}

And it gives me the following answer

But it doesn't send the file neither the message.

Can someone help?

This is a required parameter

 # SLACK_WEBHOOK: ${{ secrets.SLACK_KEY_URL }}

And it will priory it to Token. You can see the logic at: https://github.com/rtCamp/action-slack-notify/blob/master/entrypoint.sh#L25

I am also facing a similar issue on @v2.2.0 while @v2 has no problem. They both print different messages:

• On @v2.2.0:

[ERROR] Secret `SLACK_WEBHOOK` is missing. Please add it to this action for proper execution.

Job failed

• On @2:

[ERROR] Secret `SLACK_WEBHOOK` is missing. Falling back to using `SLACK_TOKEN` and `SLACK_CHANNEL`.

Job success

if this was a yellow text warning over red text error, i think it make more sense. bot tokens in apps is becoming the more accepted use over web hooks.
