How to close a modal in slack?

I am using apex to invoke the modal in slack and a bit confused on how to use the response_action for closing it.

{
  "response_action": "clear"
}

Do I need to make an HTTP request and if yes what will be the endpoint and what will be the structure of JSON?

You don't need to make any Api call to close the modal , you have to send back 200 to close the current view.If you want to close all views you can return { "response_action": "clear" }

All I had to do was send back an HTTP 200 because I had only one view open but if multiple views are there we can use 

{
  "response_action": "clear"
}

Referred to the documentation here- https://api.slack.com/surfaces/modals/using#close_current_view
