Details
This delivery method sends the alert information to a channel in your Slack workspace. In order to deliver the alert to Slack, you need to create an Incoming Webhook in your Slack workspace. Once you have the Webhook URL, you can create the delivery method.
You can find below the information required on the New Delivery Method window for this delivery method (for the creation process visit Manage delivery methods).
