You can configure **Slack notifications** to alert your team whenever a Functionize orchestration executes. This is especially useful when running orchestrations as part of a **CI/CD pipeline** (e.g., Jenkins). Once configured, your team will see orchestration results in Slack automatically, keeping everyone aligned without needing to log into Functionize.

## **Why Use Slack Notifications?**

-   **Real-time visibility** into orchestration runs.
-   **Faster feedback loops** for CI/CD pipelines.
-   **Centralized reporting** alongside other team updates.
-   **Direct access to results** from Slack via links to Functionize reports.

## **Setup Guide**

### **Step 1: Create a Slack App with Incoming Webhooks**

1.  In Slack, create or select the channel where you want Functionize notifications delivered.
2.  Go to [Slack’s App Management](https://api.slack.com/apps) page
3.  In the upper-right, click **Build**.
4.  Click **Create an App** → select **From scratch**.
5.  Enter an **App Name**, choose your **Slack Workspace**, and click **Create App**.

### **Step 2: Enable Incoming Webhooks**

1.  In your new app, go to **Incoming Webhooks**.
2.  Toggle **Activate Incoming Webhooks** → **On**.
3.  Scroll down and click **Add New Webhook to Workspace**.
4.  Select the Slack channel created or selected in Step 1 and click **Allow**.
5.  Copy the **Webhook URL** provided for that channel. You’ll need this for Functionize.

### **Step 3: Configure Slack in Functionize**

1.  In Functionize, go to the **Orchestrations** page → click **\+ Create New Orchestration** or select **Edit** from the action column of an existing orchestration.
2.  On the **Integrations** tab:
    -   Paste the **Slack Webhook URL**.
    -   Enter the exact **Slack Channel Name**.
3.  On the **Advanced** tab:
    -   Choose notification preference from **Alerts Delivery**:
        -   **Failure only** (alert on failures).
        -   **All runs** (alert every time).
        -   **No alerts** (disable).
4.  Click **Confirm** → review and confirm test cases → click **Submit**.

## **What to Expect**

-   When the orchestration runs, Functionize sends a message to your Slack channel.
-   The notification includes a link to the run report.
-   Clicking the report link opens a **read-only version** of the Orchestration Results in Functionize.
    -   Note: Slack links are only viewable to logged-in Functionize users with the appropriate permissions.

**Best Practice:** Use a dedicated Slack channel (e.g., `#qa-automation-results`) so alerts don’t get lost in general team chatter.

## **Summary**

Configuring Slack notifications for Functionize makes it easy to keep your whole team in sync. Whenever an orchestration runs, Functionize automatically sends a message to your chosen Slack channel with the results. This gives your team real-time visibility into test executions, faster feedback for CI/CD pipelines, and quick access to detailed reports, all without needing to log in to Functionize! It’s a simple way to keep everyone aligned and informed.
