Get production alerts in your Slack channel

Atatus posts new errors, incidents, uptime and SSL alerts to the Slack channel you choose. Each message links straight to the details in Atatus, so whoever is on call can start fixing.

    Click Create new notification channel, then choose Slack as the channel type.

Only want new-error alerts for one project? Open the project, go to Settings → Error Notifications → Slack and click Add to Slack. Step 3 is the same.

02 / In Slack

Alerts your team can act on.

Every message names the project and links straight to the details in Atatus.

Errors

Catch new errors as they happen

Each new or reopened error posts with its message, project, version and release stage, plus a View error details button.

Incidents

Know when an incident opens

Alert policies post when an incident opens and when someone acknowledges it, with a View Incident button.

Uptime · SSL

Hear about downtime and expiring certificates

Uptime monitors, synthetic checks, SSL certificate checks and cron jobs post to Slack when something fails.

SIEM

Send security signals to your security channel

Cloud SIEM detection rules post each signal with its severity and a View Signal button.

03 / Your data

Posts to one channel. Reads nothing.

Atatus only needs to post alerts, so that is all it asks Slack for.

Posts only where you choose

Atatus asks Slack for the incoming-webhook permission, which lets it post to the channel you pick. It cannot read your messages, files or channel history.

Stores only what it needs

Atatus stores the channel name and ID, the webhook URL, a link to the integration’s settings in Slack and an access token. It keeps them until you remove the integration or close your account.

Read our privacy policy

Remove it any time

Delete the channel in Atatus under Alerting → Notification Channels, or remove Atatus from your workspace in Slack’s app management settings.
