Is there a way to configure templates for Slack posts? e.g. I could type something like /template hi or just /hi and it would start the message with Hello world nice day isn't it, without actually posting it so I can edit the message.
Ideally, a library of templates would be available to the whole team to use and collaborate on. (We have some standard reporting and request formats this would be useful for.)

I haven't tried exactly what you're asking but I was able to use the API and write a post in a channel

This could get you closer to what you want it to do
