There are multiple "text"
properties in the message structure. I believe the doc is referring to the top-level one outside all blocks definitions.
Example:
{
"channel": "C1H9RESGL",
"text": "Text here for notifications",
"blocks": [
{
"type": "section",
"text": {
"type": "mrkdwn",
"text": "Danny Torrence left the following review for your property:"
}
}
]
}
