title: Slack Markdown for Links Are Not Resolving
body: <p>What am I doing wrong? None of the example Markdown links work so far in my Slack app.</p>
  
  <p>I pasted in the example below in a chat in my Slack app. I got this example from <a href="https://api.slack.com/docs/formatting" rel="noreferrer">slack markdown syntax</a> and it still treats it as literal text in the Slack App:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[like this](http://someurl)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>so I end up seeing that instead of just "like this" as a link in Slack chat.</p>
  
  <p>Or maybe the above is wrong, in which case my question would then be how do you do explicitly create links in Slack? I want some text that I specify to be clickable to a specific URL (hyperlink).</p>
