      Upon trying to use the slack plugin via a git commit triggered build on my jenkins server, I get this error on my jenkins log:

          I had a similar issue, This could be because you added the integration to Slack as a private integration (added to your own profile) and therefore can only post to Direct message, and the private room you have access to.
          If you are a Slack admin, try and add the integration to your slack team, this should give the integration the ability to post to public rooms.

          So this is a limitation imposed by slack. I would consider this not a bug and defer to ben slaughter's workaround or using a public integration.

          Yes, that was indeed the issue. I had my Admin create a public integration for my team to post to public channels on Jenkins events. Thank You!
