Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: admin.conversations.invite: Invite a user to a public or private channel.

A block of code is set as follows:

{ 
"type": "button", 
"text": { 
"type": "plain_text", 
"text": "Click Me" 
},
"value": "click_me_123", 
"action_id": "button" 
}

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "From your email invitation, select the Finish Setup link."
