I am having no luck when it comes to configuring the Slack integration. I am following the Slack plugin configuration instruction . I am following the instructions exactly. I am only configuring the Incoming Webhook, not the optional Slash Command. The Incoming Webhook is configured to send a private…

Hey there, Have you set up a filter rule? You can do it at /admin/plugins/slack

Yes, I tried two filter rules. One that would notify post first to a channel, and a second that would notify my Slack user on any activity. But not both at the same time. Even if there were no filters, wouldn’t the Test Notification still work? I deleted the initial filter rule, as the slack had r…

I think I have it working now. I did two things: Installed the Slackdoor plugin Created an All Categories filter rule I tested by disabling Slackdoor and notifications did not appear to work. Why would Slackdoor help this? I thought the Official Slack Plugin was just an outgoing POST connection.…

[image] UkiahSmith: Why would Slackdoor help this? That sounds odd to me. Hard to believe, frankly. But I just tried disabling the Slackdoor plugin on our site and indeed, “Test Notification” from the official Slack plugin does not work until I re-enable to Slackdoor plugin… :confused:

we’re having the same issue. i’ve had one post go through using the ‘test notifications’ button, so it is able to work - but every other post and test has failed to go to our Slack thread

My personal recommendation is that you use the new plugin I wrote: Discourse Chat Integrations

It has all the same functionality, and solves a lot of bugs that the existing Slack plugin has.
