Edit a message

Synopsis

Section titled “Synopsis”

Update the text of an existing Slack message.

The channel argument accepts #channel-name or a channel ID. If new-text is omitted, reads from stdin (for piping).

The new text goes through the same pipeline as message send: standard Markdown (bold, # headers, links) is converted to Slack mrkdwn and @mentions are resolved. Use —raw to disable the Markdown conversion.

slackbuzz message edit <channel> <timestamp> [new-text] [flags]
