Description

There may have been a network issue which causes an API call to fail. However, the workflow did not fail.
The workflow was using Slack Bot Token and a Channel ID while posting a payload.

Bug Report

Reproducible in:

package version: 1.16.0

node version:

OS version(s): Ubuntu 20

Steps to reproduce:

1. With a step looking like this

  users: slackapi/slack-github-action@v1.16.0
  with:
    channel-id: XXXXX
    payload: {
    "text": "Some text",
    "blocks": [
      {
        "type": "section",
        "text": {
          "type": "mrkdwn",
          "text": "*Some text*"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
  env:
    SLACK_BOT_TOKEN: ***

2. Not sure how you could simulate Slack API going down... I am guessing you want this line to raise an exception:
   

   slack-github-action/src/slack-send.js

   Line 66 in 3658c41

   await web.chat.postMessage({ channel: channelId, text: message, ...(payload || {}) });

It is worth noting that the said step runs fine many times, so I am pretty sure that the payload and parameters are set correctly.

Expected result:

The step causes the workflow to error

Actual result:

The workflow passes.
