I’m building a bot on slack and installed Rasa’s newest version using pip install rasa-x --extra-index-url Simple Index which installs slackclient==1.3.1 version. I’m currently using slackclient==2.3.1 version and am unable to have a environment that works. Is anyone else facing similar problems with the slack version? [Capture] You can see that both versions of slack are currently installed in the image above. The first one i.e. 2.3.1 is the one that I had installed earlier and the 2nd is the one that got install when i install rasa using the above command. [Capture] Now i’m unable to connect to the Slack API. :frowning:

Hi @kvsista , you’re right, rasa is still on 1.3.1. This is why we recommend installing rasa in a venv. What are you using slackclient 2.3.1 for?

Yes, there is an issue open for updating the slackclient: look into updating to slackclient 2.0 · Issue #3464 · RasaHQ/rasa · GitHub which i agree needs to be done since apparently support for 1.x drops at the end of the year. I looked briefly into it, and it’s not just a trivial upgrade, pretty sure some things break when upgrading that need to get fixed, but if you’re interested in implementing the upgrade we’d be happy to accept a PR for it.

The newer version of slack has a redesigned RTMCClient and WebClient which I think would be better to use. Are there any plans for enhancements?
