This object's logger instance

Preference for immediately rejecting API calls which result in a rate-limited response

Queue of requests in which a maximum of WebClientOptions.maxRequestConcurrency can concurrently be in-flight.

Configuration for retry operations. See node-retry for more details.

This object's teamId value

The base URL for reaching Slack's Web API. Consider changing this value for testing purposes.

Authentication and authorization token for accessing Slack Web API (usually begins with xoxp or xoxb)

Processes an HTTP response into a WebAPICallResult by performing JSON parsing on the body and merging relevent HTTP headers into the object.

Low-level function to make a single API request. handles queuing, retries, and http-level errors

Transforms options (a simple key-value object) into an acceptable value for a body. This can be either a string, used when posting with a content-type of url-encoded. Or, it can be a readable stream, used when the options contain a binary (a stream or a buffer) and the upload should be done with content-type multipart/form-data.

Generic method for calling a Web API method

Iterate over the result pages of a cursor-paginated Web API method. This method can return two types of values, depending on which arguments are used. When up to two parameters are used, the return value is an async iterator which can be used as the iterable in a for-await-of loop. When three or four parameters are used, the return value is a promise that resolves at the end of iteration. The third parameter, shouldStop, is a function that is called with each page and can end iteration by returning true. The fourth parameter, reduce, is a function that is called with three arguments: accumulator, page, and index. The accumulator is a value of any type you choose, but it will contain undefined when reduce is called for the first time. The page argument and index arguments are exactly what they say they are. The reduce function's return value will be passed in as accumulator the next time its called, and the returned promise will resolve to the last value of accumulator.

The for-await-of syntax is part of ES2018. It is available natively in Node starting with v10.0.0. You may be able to use it in earlier JavaScript runtimes by transpiling your source with a tool like Babel. However, the transpiled code will likely sacrifice performance.
