When you integrate with Slack, Dead Man's Snitch alerts will post
notifications to your Slack channel. In addition, you'll be able to use
/dms
slash commands to check up on your snitches.
Integrating with Slack is easy and should take less than a minute.
Slash commands can be used to check up on your snitches. Just type
/dms
followed by a command for snitch information to be
delivered right to your slack channel.
You may need to configure your existing Slack integration to allow slash commands. When you visit your account settings, your existing integrations will have an option to upgrade to use slash commands if this needs to be done. If you don't see the link, you're all set! Updating is as simple as clicking on the upgrade link, and repeating the same steps you took when you added your integration.
Here are all the commands you can use with your Dead Man's Snitch Slack
integration. If you ever need a quick reminder, /dms help
can
give you the assistance you need.
