Adapters
Before you can use the TapeTrack slack App you must first add at least one ODPAPI Adapter.
Adding an Adapter

Libraries
Listing Libraries
When listing libraries you can either query one of the adapters by name, or use a wildcard to match the closest adapter.
Syntax
/tapetrack name library list
Example
/tapetrack * library list
In the returned list of accessible libraries you will get a library UUID along with the library description. The library UUID will be used to access that library and the tapes within it going forward.
Library Information
Syntax
/tapetrack name library info library_uuid
Example
/tapetrack name library info 41553031-0000-0000-4c54-4f004f464653
At the bottom of the library info command button is a Show button. You can click this to list the tapes that belong to that library.
