Pipe events to Slack
Post to any channel in your workspace. Connect once with OAuth, pick the channel per pipeline. Classify, enrich, and redact in flight first — then land only what matters, with retries and a dead-letter queue behind every delivery.
connect Slack
- 01
connect your workspace
Authorize the ingestlayer Slack app over OAuth from the destinations page. We hold only a channel-scoped bot token, in-region, in the same KMS as your other credentials.
- 02
pick a channel
Choose any public channel, or invite the bot to a private one. The channel is set per pipeline, so different events can land in different places.
- 03
map the message
Reference event fields with $event.* in the message template. The default renders a titled block with the event name and its key fields.

notes
- Slack rate-limits to roughly one message per second per channel; bursts are queued and retried, never dropped.
- The bot must be a member of a private channel before it can post there — invite it explicitly.
- Block Kit caps a message at 50 blocks and 3000 characters per text field; oversized events are truncated with a link to the full payload.
