Slack

This guide will show you how to set up Slack notifications using cside webhooks. We have created a special format specifically for Slack to make it incredibly easy to set up.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you'll need a Slack webhook URL. If you don't have one yet:

1. Go to your Slack workspace
2. Navigate to Apps → Incoming Webhooks
3. Click Add to Slack
4. Select the channel where you want to receive notifications
5. Copy the webhook URL provided

Setting up a Slack Webhook Endpoint

To set up a Slack webhook endpoint in cside:

1. Navigate to your Domain Settings and select the Notifications tab
2. Click Create Notification Endpoint
3. Select Webhook from the options (this creates a webhook endpoint to receive notifications via an HTTP POST request)
4. Click Next to proceed to the configuration screen
5. In the Configure a Webhook Endpoint modal, fill in the required fields:
   • Endpoint URL*: Enter your Slack webhook URL (e.g., https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR/WEBHOOK/URL)
   • Format*: Select Slack from the dropdown menu
6. Click Create a webhook to complete the setup

Once created, cside will automatically format notifications for Slack and send them to your specified channel whenever events occur in your account.
