Filetype is not available immediately after uploading a file

Hi All,

I am trying to send slack message with image from github action, but it is failing everytime. First let me explain, what I am trying to achieve:

• Upload an image in slack
• Extract the permalink of the uploaded image
• Then add that permalink into slack message and send

All these steps are working fine, except it fails to send the message with image. Let me share the code:

Upload image and extract permalink:

`      # 📤 Upload Doughnut Chart to Slack & Get Image URL
      - name: Upload Chart to Slack
        if: always()
        run: |
          response=$(curl -s -X POST \
            -H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.SLACK_BOT_TOKEN }}" \
            -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
            --data "filename=test_results.png&length=$(stat -c%s test_results.png)" \
            https://slack.com/api/files.getUploadURLExternal)

          echo "Slack Upload URL Response: $response"

          upload_url=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.upload_url')
          file_id=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.file_id')

          if [ "$upload_url" == "null" ] || [ "$file_id" == "null" ]; then
            echo "⚠️ Failed to get upload URL from Slack."
            exit 1
          fi

          # Step 2: Upload the file to the received URL
          upload_response=$(curl -X POST \
            -H "Content-Type: image/png" \
            -F file=@test_results.png \
            "$upload_url")

          echo "Slack File Upload Response: $upload_response"

          # Step 3: Complete the upload and get the file permalink
          complete_response=$(curl -s -X POST \
            -H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.SLACK_BOT_TOKEN }}" \
            -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
            -d '{
                  "files": [{"id": "'"$file_id"'", "title": "Test Results"}]
                }' \
            https://slack.com/api/files.completeUploadExternal)

          echo "Slack Complete Upload Response: $complete_response"

          image_url=$(echo "$complete_response" | jq -r '.files[0].permalink')

          if [ "$image_url" == "null" ]; then
            echo "⚠️ Failed to upload image to Slack."
            exit 1
          else
            echo "✅ Image uploaded: $image_url"
            echo "IMAGE_URL=$image_url" >> $GITHUB_ENV
          fi`

The output it displays:

Send slack message with image:

The Output is displaying:

As per the error it is saying that filetype is missing. If you see the output after uploading the image, then you will also see filetype is missing. I do not know if that is the issue. If that is issue, why image filetype is not setting when uploaded by slack api? Any idea or solution?

Inizia con la sequenza di upload e la Slack files.completeUploadExternal response mostrata nell’issue, quindi confrontala con il chat.postMessage error e l’image block payload. Non viene indicato alcun file del repository né alcun test, quindi determina innanzitutto se questo comportamento appartiene all’action o alla Slack API integration; il lavoro è completato quando la causa e un percorso di correzione riproducibile sono documentati.
