modal.go

// Modal example - How to respond to a slash command with an interactive modal and parse the response
// The flow of this example:
// 1. User trigers your app with a slash command (e.g. /modaltest) that will send a request to http://URL/slash and respond with a request to open a modal
// 2. User fills out fields first and last name in modal and hits submit
// 3. This will send a request to http://URL/modal and send a greeting message to the user

// Note: Within your slack app you will need to enable and provide a URL for "Interactivity & Shortcuts" and "Slash Commands"
// Note: Be sure to update YOUR_SIGNING_SECRET_HERE and YOUR_TOKEN_HERE
// You can use ngrok to test this example: https://api.slack.com/tutorials/tunneling-with-ngrok
// Helpful slack documentation to learn more: https://api.slack.com/interactivity/handling
