Pipekit Workflow Alerting lets you configure alerts for workflows through Slack or MS Teams integration. You can set alerts on specific workflow statuses such as QUEUED, RUNNING, FAILED or COMPLETED.
Alert providers are connected at the Organization level. For more information, refer to the Managing Alert Providers documentation.
Add Alert Rules
Once you have connected an alert provider, click on Pipes from the Navbar to navigate to pipekit.io/pipes where you'll see a list of pipes.
Select the pipe that you want to add alerts for. You'll be redirected to the pipe details page for your selected pipe.
Click on the Alert Rules tab. You will be prompted to select your alert provider, workflow status such as QUEUED, RUNNING, FAILED, COMPLETED etc and a specific alert message of your choice.
Alerting specific Slack users
For Slack only, you can mention specific Slack users in alerts by referencing them by their Member ID.
To find a Slack user's Member ID, navigate to their profile in Slack, click the ellipsis menu, and select "Copy Member ID". Paste this ID into the "CC Users" field in the Pipekit UI when adding your alert rule.
You can alert multiple users in the same alert by separating their Member IDs with a comma.
Validate Workflow Alerts
Head to your Slack or MS Teams workspace and find the channel you selected when your connected your alert provider to Pipekit.
In that channel, you should see the alert that was added for your selected pipe.
Validate the alert by clicking on the link in the alert where you can check the workflow's execution status on the Pipekit UI.
