Integration for alert notifications

You can use this integration to enable Soda Cloud to send alert notifications to a Slack channel to notify your team of warn and fail check results.

With such an integration, Soda Cloud enables users to select a Slack channel as the destination for an alert notification of an individual check or checks that form a part of an agreement, or multiple checks.

To send notifications that apply to multiple checks, see Notifications

Integration for Soda Cloud incidents

You can use this integration to notify your team when a new incident has been created in Soda Cloud. With such an integration, Soda Cloud displays an external link to an incident-specific Slack channel in the Incident Details.
