  7. Now that incoming webhooks are enabled, the settings page should refresh and some additional options will appear. One of those options is a button called Add New Webhook to Workspace, click it.

    What this button does is trigger a shortcut version of the installation flow for Slack apps, one that is completely self-contained so that you don't have to actually build any code to generate an incoming webhook URL.
