Slack Integration

Introduction​

The Attribute platform can be integrated with various notification channels in order to provide productive integration with our customers' regular business notification workflows.

The Attribute platform currently supports two options for Slack integration: Slack Webhooks, or the full Attribute for Slack app.

Note

Triggering actions from Slack is only available with the Attribute for Slack app.
