Bolt for JS v5

Bolt for JS version 5.0.0 switches to the native Fetch API, removes the deprecated Workflow Steps from Apps feature, and requires Node.js 20 or higher as the minimum version.

Version 5.0.0 of Bolt for JS is here! This release follows the Node Slack SDK's shift from axios to the native Fetch API, removes the deprecated Workflow Steps from Apps feature, and raises the minimum Node.js version to 20.

If your app doesn't use proxy/TLS configuration or inspect respond() return values, this upgrade is possibly only a version bump.

New features​

  • We've added a dispatcher option to the SocketModeReceiver class.
  • We've added instanceof operator support to error classes.

Breaking changes​

  • We've updated the respond() utility function to return a native Response object.
