Question

Hey question about notifications I saw there is a feature to send slack notifications which is configured per launch plan Slack requires a webhook url or a slack token but I didn t find from the docs how to pass either of these The docs speak of SNS SQS or pub sub queues Does the slack integration actually send to slack or are we expected to use the sns sqs to do it ourselves

I see <https slack com help articles 206819278 Send emails to Slack> Thanks for the clarification

Yee · Answer

sns sqs are used for ensuring that notifications get sent or at least substantially increasing the probability that messages are sent

Yee · Answer

when a notification needs to happen a message is sent to sns amazon delivers that to sqs and a background goroutine in admin will poll sqs for notifications when it sees one it ll send it out
