You can find the codes for all emojis on this page. Here are a few examples:

Text Formatting

You can also use basic formatting within slack messages by using the following codes:

• Bold - Place an Asterisk (*) before and after the word you'd like to be bolded. For example, *Hello* would be displayed as Hello
• Italics - Place an underscore (_) before and after the word you'd like to be italicized. For example, _Hello_ would be displayed as Hello
