Using slackSheriff

Configure your bot as per Slack API, specifically setting up a slash command e.g. /sheriff 👆.

Then use the slash commands to point to the relative request url.

Running the slacksheriff

1. Run slacksheriff locally using node. Use something like ngrok to expose an external url. Then point your slack bot at your server.

2. Deploy slacksheriff to AWS lambda using something like Apex's up, Serverless, or AWS dashboard.

Umm that's kinda it.
