Slack Image and Message Changes
Published on February 19, 2019
Do you use Slack? If so, we have a major update for you! Today we released significant upgrades to how we handle images and support for additional message types.
In the recent past, we often couldn’t pull in images from Slack, and that’s now been fixed. We know this was a major headache for many of you.
The reason we couldn’t pull in images was related to authentication and how our systems work, but now while we are authorized and getting the posts, we can now grab the related images, and make them available to our backends.
It’s really complicated, and a lesson for another day, but, we hope you enjoy posting your GIFs… oh, yeah! We now support animated GIFs from Slack.

Today we rolled out a number of changes to Polling, primarily targeted to support future features, and providing a few nice options for our Full Service team now. Our API now supports the ability for custom integrations to log votes for categories in a poll. In other words, we can now build touch screen voting into your full service walls, so your guests don’t need to vote via Twitter or Instagram. They can use iPads / Tablets / Touch Screens to vote.
Today we are proud to announce the public availability for Instagram Business Profiles on Everwall. Instagram Business Profile support means that we are able to support pulling in public posts from Instagram by hashtag. We can also pull in all posts from the @account that you authenticated.
