Slack notifications

·

SummitPSA can post key events to Slack using an incoming webhook. Slack messages include a coloured attachment with the event title and a link to the ticket.

Set it up

  1. In Slack, create an Incoming Webhook for the target channel and copy its URL (it looks like https://hooks.slack.com/services/...).
  2. In SummitPSA, go to Admin → Settings and paste it into Slack incoming webhook URL.
  3. Set Notify on to the events you want (comma-separated):
    • critical_ticket
    • sla_breach
    • portal_submission
  4. Save and use Send test notification to verify.

Notes

  • Slack and Teams share one Notify on list; you can run either, both, or neither.
  • Notifications fire only for the events you've enabled (default critical_ticket,sla_breach).
  • Webhook posts time out after a few seconds and fail silently if Slack is unreachable — they never block ticket processing.

A failed test usually means the webhook URL is wrong or the Slack app has been removed from the workspace.
