WebMonitoring Online supports Slack’s Incoming WebHook functionality to send alerts to your Slack channel. For this, first, you have to set up a Webhook to receive alerts. You can check the Slack’s official documentation to create a Webhook. https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks

Once you have the Webhook URL, to your WebMonitoring dashboard to add the Slack alert contact.

• Click ‘Add Alert Contact’, It will show the contact form.
• Add a name for your Slack Webhook.
• Select ‘Slack‘ in ‘Contact Type‘

Your Slack alert contact is ready to use. Now in order to receive the alerts you have to add this contact to your monitors.

Not it’s ready and you will receive notifications on your Slack channel if there is any downtime on your Monitor.
