Receive Slack Notifications on Your List

Get instant notifications on your suppliers sent directly to you as a personal Slack message or to a Slack channel. These alerts are great for keeping tabs on risk-prone suppliers.

Create a Public Channel in Slack

After you configure your Oracle DataFox platform for Slack integration, create a public channel in Slack. See Integrate Slack with Oracle DataFox.

Note: If you have set up your company's Slack configuration, only you can create a private channel and receive alerts. All other users need to put them in public channels. For more information, see Slack Alerts.

Set Up Alerts from a List or Dynamic List

1. After you create a channel, go to the list of companies linked to supplier profiles.

   See Create a List of Companies Linked to Supplier Profiles.

2. Click the Alerts icon.

3. In the Signal Alert Preferences dialog box, set the Send Alerts Via field to Instant (Slack), and then enter the Slack member ID or channel to which you want to send alerts to.

4. Select the signal types that you want to receive alerts on.

   To copy a Slack member ID, navigate to the profile within Slack and click the More actions icon.

   Tip: If you aren't seeing any alerts in Slack yet, make sure that you entered the correct channel name without the # sign.

Confirm Slack Alerts Are Set Up

To confirm that your alerts are properly configured, click the assigned Slack channel and check for the confirmation message from Oracle DataFox.

You're now set to receive alerts on your lists and dynamic lists via Slack.
