I ve been using the `SlackWebhook` block to do this ```from prefect blocks notifications import SlackWebhook slack webhook block = SlackWebhook load BLOCK NAME slack webhook block notify Hello from Prefect ``` `notifications py`about moving this to `prefect slack` though

I ve created an issue <https github com PrefectHQ prefect slack issues 43|here> as i am not to sure why this would not work Given there is nothing prefect critical going on inside of `send chat message` I do not see a reason as to why fn should fail silently
