Slack Connection for the Notification Hub

You can connect Slack to Warmy to receive real-time notifications directly in your Slack channels (for example: mailbox issues, DNS problems, warm-up alerts, or system events).

This guide explains how to create a Slack Incoming Webhook and connect it to Warmy’s Notification Hub.


What You’ll Need

  • Admin access to your Slack workspace

  • Permission to create Slack apps

  • Access to your Warmy dashboard


Step 1: Create a Slack Incoming Webhook

Slack uses Incoming Webhooks to allow external tools (like Warmy) to send messages into Slack channels.

1. Open Slack Apps

Go to:
https://api.slack.com/apps

2. Create a New App

  • Click Create New App

  • Select From scratch

  • Enter:

    • App Name (for example: Warmy Notifications)

    • Workspace where notifications should be sent

  • Click Create App


Step 2: Enable Incoming Webhooks

  1. In your app settings, open Incoming Webhooks

  2. Enable Activate Incoming Webhooks

  3. Click Add New Webhook to Workspace

  4. Select the Slack channel where you want to receive notifications

  5. Confirm the selection

Slack will generate a Webhook URL.

👉 Copy this Webhook URL — you’ll need it in the next step.

For additional technical details, Slack’s official documentation is available here:
https://docs.slack.dev/messaging/sending-messages-using-incoming-webhooks/


Step 3: Add the Webhook to Warmy

  1. Log in to your Warmy account

  2. Go to Notification Hub

  3. Open the Slack section

  4. Paste the copied Slack Webhook URL

  5. Save the settings

That’s it 🎉
Warmy will now send notifications directly to your selected Slack channel.


Tips & Best Practices

  • We recommend creating one Slack channel dedicated to Warmy alerts (for example: #warmy-notifications)

  • Make sure the Webhook URL is kept private

  • You can disable or rotate the Webhook at any time from Slack App settings


Troubleshooting

  • No messages in Slack?
    Double-check that:

    • Incoming Webhooks are enabled

    • The correct channel was selected

    • The Webhook URL was pasted correctly in Warmy

  • Wrong channel?
    Create a new Webhook and select a different channel in Slack.
