Common questions
Can Knit build “Send new StatusCake alerts to Slack as channel messages.” between StatusCake and Slack?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches StatusCake and Slack's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.
How long does it take to build?
Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
Why post monitoring alerts to team chat?
Engineers already work in Slack. Posting StatusCake alerts there means problems are seen quickly and the discussion happens alongside the alert.
Can I route alerts to different channels?
Yes. Send alerts from StatusCake to different Slack channels based on the service, monitor or severity.
