user1136759

Description

We want to associate users with a Slack identification in the user profile. The alternative selections for notifications to be expanded to be able to include selecting Slack . The Slack address will be automatically referenced through the user profile. 

Use Case and Business Need

Slack is becoming a prevalent communication medium that has advantages over SMS. We want to be able to exploit those advantages  such as Group collaboration through utilizing Slack as a methodology of informing our personnel of events that generate notifications.

More details

Currently there is no option to select Slack as a communication channel for notifications. We believe that socialization of events will evolve more through this type of medium than they will with static nature of text/SMS.
