Notifications

Choose what SysJ tells you about, in the bell, by email and in Slack or Teams.

SysJ tells people about four kinds of event. You hear about one when it is waiting on you, when you asked for it, or when you own what it is about.

TopicWhen
Approvals waitingA deployment is waiting for someone who may approve it.
Deployments decidedA deployment someone asked for was approved or rejected.
Deployments finishedA deployment someone asked for succeeded or failed.
Clusters finishedA cluster build, resize, update or teardown finished.

Your own choices

Under Settings, Notifications, choose for each topic whether it appears in the bell and whether it is emailed as it happens, in one daily summary at the hour you pick, or not at all. These choices are yours alone.

Chat channels

  1. Create an incoming webhook in Slack or Microsoft Teams for the channel.
  2. Under Administration, Tools integration, choose Connect a chat channel, name it, and paste the webhook address. SysJ keeps it in its secret store and never shows it again.
  3. Choose which topics it posts about.
  4. Send a test to check it works.

A channel stops posting after five failures in a row, until a test succeeds. Managing channels needs workspace.manage.
