Hello,

Unfortunately, there is not yet a way to add or edit text in the end users' client's message input. It may be worth reaching out to the Slack team directly through /feedback or feedback@slack.com to request this feature - you are not the first one looking for this feature!

Dear sir, I have attached a slack message area. I am creating a custom flask python app to make slack more interactive. I am creating such a feature that after using that function I want to send messages to just text areas, not auto posting . Steps: I have two button yes, no After clicking no button I want to send a "please check again" message to the slack message area but not auto posting because I want the button clicked user to see and read that message in the message area and edit if they want and send it manually.I have created this function using flask app. But I am stopped sue to lack of idea. My code is: I want that message sending option to text area inside click_me_457 elif  @app.route('/slack/interactive-endpoint', methods=['POST', 'OPTIONS']) def actionOnButtonClick():       payload_data = json.loads(request.form["payload"])     button_clicked = payload_data["actions"][0]["value"]     user_id = payload_data["user"]["id"]          # Use button_clicked to perform the appropriate action     if button_clicked == "click_me_456":         client.chat_postMessage(channel=' #general https://trailhead.salesforce.com/trailblazer-community/topics/general ',text='Ok '+button_clicked)       elif button_clicked == "click_me_457":         # Send an ephemeral message to the user with the text         text = "This text will appear in the message area when the button is clicked."         try:             response = client.chat_postEphemeral(                 channel=" #general https://trailhead.salesforce.com/trailblazer-community/topics/general ",                 user=user_id,                 text=text             )         except SlackApiError as e:             print("Error sending ephemeral message: {}".format(e))       return "", 200
