Got the following email from Slack regarding files.upload API method deprecation on March 11, 2025. It seems that plugin will need an update to continue working.

We want to remind you about an upcoming date and change to the files.upload web API method that affects your OctoSlack app.

March 11, 2025
Support for the files.upload API will be discontinued.
To prepare for this change, we recommend migrating away from files.upload and instead using the combination of files.getUploadURLExternal and files.completeUploadExternal. More information on how to use these two APIs together can be found on our Working with files documentation. You can also leverage Slack's SDKs to help you transition to this new way of uploading files by visiting our api.slack page.

To view details about OctoSlack, please visit:
OctoSlack Detail View
If your app using the files.upload API does not update to the method above, file uploads from your app will no longer work beginning on March 11, 2025.

You can learn more about this change in our developer changelog. If you have questions about this change or need help, please reply to this message or reach out to us at [email protected].

Thanks,
The team at Slack

It looks like solution would be to switch from call to slack_client3.files_upload to files_upload_v2 method supported by slack_sdk. Here is a release note about that transition: https://github.com/slackapi/python-slack-sdk/releases/tag/v3.19.0

Additional info about files.upload API method: https://api.slack.com/changelog/2024-04-a-better-way-to-upload-files-is-here-to-stay

I will try to get that implemented, but if anyone with better knowledge of OctoSlack can take a look it might be faster way to go.

Thanks.
