Configure dark mode Slack notification feature
This dark mode feature is only available from Comala Document Management 6.11.3.
A global administrator must enable the Comala Slack macro dark feature for the site.
Set up a Slack channel for notifications
An empty Slack app must be created and then a channel in the Slack workspace must be exposed. For more details see https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks.
In Slack you will need to
- create an app
- expose a channel in your Slack workspace by creating an incoming webhook for the app
The incoming webhook URL will need to be copied to add to your workflow trigger to create the notification.
Add one or more Slack notification triggers to your workflow
The {slack-channel-message}
macro can be added to a trigger in your workflow. You will to be able to access the Slack app in the Slack workspace to copy the webhook URL as well as edit the workflow.
- copy the Slack webhook URL (webhook ID) created when you created the Slack app and exposed the channel in the Slack workspace
- add the
{slack-channel-message}
macro including the webhook ID
{trigger:statechanged|state=Approved} {slack-channel-message:webhook=https://hooks.slack.com/services/<webhook_ID>} Here is my first slack notification. My @pagetitle@ content has just transitioned to the Approved state. {slack-channel-message} {trigger}
The trigger can be set to listen for a number of workflow events such as statechanged
and pageapproved.
