Slack GraphQL

Slack does not expose a native public GraphQL endpoint. The Slack platform APIs are REST-based: the Web API (https://slack.com/api/*) is an HTTP/JSON interface, the Events API delivers webhook payloads, Socket Mode uses WebSockets, and the RTM API (legacy) is also WebSocket-based. There is no gRPC surface exposed to third-party developers.
