Overview

Today's work environments depend on various applications to communicate information, whether within teams, across organizations, or at a global scale. In the SnapLogic platform, the built-in communication system allows Org admins and users to directly message or send email notifications triggered by system events or user actions by email. In the 4.24 Release (February 2021), you can now also send messages from your Org to non-SnapLogic team members.

Key Features

Slack integration supports the following actions in the UI:

Workflow

  • Enable Slack integration in SnapLogic Manager.
  • Create and modify existing notifications and alerts to include Slack recipients and channels.

    users

    team members directly on Slack or through a Slack channel specified by the creator of the notification.

    The

    user

    recipient can

    respond to the event or action appropriately

    then take the appropriate action.


    Prerequisites

    • You must have Org admin access to set up Slack.
    • You must have the Slack application instance configured and populated with channels and team members to derive full benefit of this feature.


    Enabling Slack for your SnapLogic Org

    1. In Manager > Settings, scroll down to Slack Notifications, and click Add Slack:

      The Slack application opens.

    2. In the Slack access page, read the prompt and click Allow.

      You are returned to Manager.

    To validate that the Slack integration is successful, you should see Slack notification fields for Slack recipients and channels when you configure Activity Notifications. 


    Removing Slack from your Org

    1. In Manager > Settings, scroll down to Slack Notifications, and click Remove Slack.
    2. Open a notification in Manager >Settings to confirm that the Edit Notification dialog does not display fields under Slack Recipients.

    If you have Slack integration enabled for more than one Org, then removing the integration from one Org does not stop SnapLogic communications through Slack. See Removing Access to Slack for details.


    Removing Access to Slack

    Slack integration in SnapLogic is based on using a token to authenticate access. To stop Slack communications for one Org while maintaining access for all other Orgs, see Remove apps and custom integrations from your workspace. Otherwise, you can move access to Slack from your Org by removing Slack for each Org in Manager.
