Slack: how do I get alerts in Slack?

Connect Zenovay to Slack to receive anomaly alerts, goal-completion pings, and weekly digests in a channel of your choice.

Last updated:

The Slack integration lets you forward Zenovay alerts directly to a Slack channel — no webhook plumbing required. Useful for keeping the team informed of anomalies and conversion milestones without anyone having to log into the dashboard.

What you can route to Slack

  • Anomaly alerts — sudden traffic spikes or drops, conversion rate shifts, top referrer changes.
  • Goal-completion pings — every time a goal converts, with the goal name and source.
  • Funnel drop-off alerts — when a step's conversion rate drops below a threshold.
  • Weekly digest — Monday-morning summary of last week's traffic, top pages, top sources.
  • Uptime + error alerts — site down, slow response, JS error spike.

You can subscribe each Slack channel to any subset of these.

Connecting Slack

  1. In your dashboard, go to Settings → Integrations → Slack.
  2. Click Connect to Slack. You'll be redirected to Slack's OAuth screen.
  3. Choose the workspace and the channel where alerts should land. You can pick a public channel or a private one (the bot must be invited to private channels first).
  4. Click Authorize. You'll be redirected back to Zenovay with the connection live.

Choosing what gets posted

Once connected, the integration page shows toggles for each alert category. Default is:

  • Anomaly alerts: on
  • Goal completions: off (high volume — opt-in)
  • Funnel drop-off: on
  • Weekly digest: on
  • Uptime/error alerts: on

For high-traffic sites, leaving "goal completions" on is noisy. Consider routing those to a dedicated #zenovay-conversions channel instead.

Multiple channels

You can connect multiple Slack channels per workspace — useful for separating alert categories. Common setup:

  • #zenovay-alerts — anomalies, uptime, errors
  • #zenovay-wins — goal completions, milestones
  • #zenovay-digest — weekly summary only

Each channel has its own toggle set.

Customising the message format

The Slack message includes:

  • The alert title (e.g. "Traffic anomaly: +120% on /pricing")
  • The metric value with delta vs. baseline
  • A link back to the relevant dashboard view

You can't currently customise the wording. If you need a structured payload (for routing or filtering inside Slack), use the generic webhooks integration and post into a Slack incoming webhook on your side.

Plan availability

Slack integration requires the Pro plan or higher. Free plan users can use the generic webhook integration to roll their own.
