Overview

We need to define what automations Admin and projects need so that we can create a requirements document for a Slack Bot platform

Action Items

  • Brainstorm ideas
  • Create Spreadsheet
  • Prioritize
  • Gather more info on the ideas that are Must Haves
  • Review Hack for LA's Bot History (some details available in the comments on this issue - do not read the history until we have other ideas, because it keeps pulling the project off track and killing any initiative anyone has!

Proposal Overview

When backend services go down, it would be convenient if the relevant team could be notified on Slack so they can address the issue.

How to do it

These steps are part of the original proposal #1 and won't necessarily be used in this way.

  • Create a Slack app with "incoming webhooks" enabled.
  • For each team that wants to use the Slack app, create a webhook that's connected to the channel they want to receive notifications in.
  • Each team can connect to their webhook from whatever backend services they're using. This would have to be done on a team-by-team basis.

Resources/Instructions

These are the Slack instructions for creating an app with incoming webhooks. https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks
