The slack output was last modified 4 years ago, which would be around the time of 7.9.0. Of course 7.9.0 is no longer supported, although 7.17.x is. [This](https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-output-slack/issues/23) github issue may provide workarounds. ---

> [@Subrahmanyam\_Veerank](#): > > sir..which latest version of logstash will support the slack output? I have no idea. The issue says it does not work in 8.10.0, and it probably worked in 7.9.0. I suggest installing 7.9.0 and doing the plugin install to confirm that it does work, then 7.17.21 and 8.0.1 to see if the major version update broke it. Then work forwards or backwards from there as needed. If 8.0 fails then try 7.14, if that works try 7.15, if not try 7.12 and so on. Working through the github history to evaluate what depended on what and created the incompatibility is insanely complicated. Just install different logstash versions and see if they work. If you do that please update this thread and the github issue. If you can show that it worked for 7.x.y (or 8.x.y) and fails on 7.x.z (or 8.x.z) there is a better chance that someone else will be interested enough to dig into what changed.
