Adding a Slack webhook

Abstract

You can set up a Slack app with Slash Commands that allow you to trigger Bitrise builds in Slack.

Slash commands for Slack apps allow you to send a payload to a service by typing a command in Slack. You can use Slash Commands to trigger Bitrise builds by creating a Slash Command. The Request URL of the Slash Command must be the Bitrise webhook URL.

  1. Open your app on Bitrise with a user that has the Admin role on the app's team.

  2. On the main page of the app, click on the App Settings icon: settings.svg.
