Token generation instructions incomplete #182

Closed axelson closed 5 years ago

axelson commented 5 years ago

Judging by the instructions present in the readme does this library only support legacy tokens?

Edit: Sent early

Legacy tokens: https://api.slack.com/docs/token-types#legacy

If not are there any instructions to go from: "App ID", "Client ID", "Client Secret", "Signing Secret" to the "token" that Slack.Bot.start_link expects?

I'm not sure if this helps you, but you can get the oauth token after you grant your Slack app permissions and install it:

Thanks! That was what I was missing.

Note: you need to go to the "Your Apps" page: https://api.slack.com/apps, click on your app, then click on "Add features and functionality ", then click on the "Permissions" button, and then you can get your oauth access token.

If it's possible to make this more clear in the README I'd love a PR if anyone has time. :)
