Setting Up a Webhook for Notifications

To set up a webhook for sending notifications to your Slack workspace:

• 1: Create a Slack app, following the instructions by signing in, adding name and workspace to put the app in.

• 2: After this, you'll be redirected to the setting pages of your new app. Choose Incoming Webhook and toggle Activate Webhook.

• 3: Scroll down to click the option Add New Webhook to Workspace.

• 4: The page will give you a link associated with the app you created. This link will be where API requests are sent to send messages to your Slack workspace.

• 5: To test if the webhook works as needed, you can try sending an API request to this link to see if the message goes through. I used Postman to test this. Remember that this is an application/json file.

• 6: Afterwards, the text channel should have a new message.

• 7: Go to Slack's webhook documentation to learn more about setting up webhooks.
