Chat integration

Slack and Pacia

The most useful engineering metric is the one that arrives without being asked for. The Slack app posts each team’s pull request queue, lifecycle alerts and a configurable pickup warning into the channel that team already lives in.

What Pacia reads from Slack

  • Nothing from Slack itself beyond the channels you connect

  • Posts the queue and alerts you configure per team

Connecting it

  1. Install the Pacia Slack app 3 min

    An organisation admin installs it and connects the channels each team should be notified in.

  2. Configure per team 2 min

    Settings → the engineering team → Notifications. Choose the channel, the lifecycle alerts and the pickup-warning percentage.

Limits, stated up front

Every integration page on this site lists what the integration does not do. Finding that out during a trial is worse for both of us than finding it out now.

  • Notification configuration is per team, deliberately — one org-wide firehose gets muted within a fortnight.
