Hey @jgkingston 👋 I agree that this is confusing behavior but it's what's currently expected in the Slack UI and is why the doggo is missing from the preview 😢 - this comment has a bit more detail: https://github.com/slackapi/bolt-js/issues/1337#issuecomment-1051565166.
I don't believe there are plans to change this soon but I'll share the feedback since the mismatched icons is a common snag. For now I'll close this issue since there isn't a workaround, though I hope to eventually revisit this with better news.
Feedback like this is also super helpful for us when suggesting certain changes, so thank you for writing in! 💌
Thank you so much for the reply and the helpful link. At least it's reassuring to know I hadn't misread the documentation.
How to resolve this issue? i am facing the same problem
Following the documentation for the
chat.postMessage
method I am able to customize the 48px avatar icon next to a message using theicon_url
property. However, when I post a message to a thread, the thread preview in the main channel that lists the replying users and the number of replies does not use the custom avatar. Is there another property or setting that can be passed to customize the 24px version as well?Packages:
