Slack Integration
The following is how to set up Slack to receive online/offline notifications for your devices using a webhook. We will be creating an app in Slack and configuring it to as a webhook, then use the webhook url generated by Slack in remote.it
This example assumes you already have the Slack app set up and Slack workspace (account) and a channel where these messages will be sent.
It is recommended that you have a dedicated channel to receive these messages so that you can control the message notifications.
