πͺ Slack Channel Stakeholder Notifications
Recently, while working with a customer, I saw a really cool use of PagerTreeβs Stakeholder Notifications to send messages into a Slack channel. They did this by using the Slackβs Email to Slack integration along with PagerTreeβs Stakeholder notifications. Today Iβd like to share with you how they did it.
Prerequisites β
To get started, youβll need several things.
- A PagerTree subscription with the elite plan.
- A Slack account with a premium plan.
In Slack β
Create a Stakeholder Channel β
From your Slack workspace:
-
In the left hand menu, click the + button, next to the Channels.
-
In the Create a channel form, letβs add the name of the group to be stakeholders, then click the Create Channel button.
Create the Slack Email Integration β
-
In your browser, navigate to the Slack Email Integration.
-
Click the Install Button.
-
Select the #stakeholders channel we just created above, then click Add Email Integration
-
Copy the email address that slack provides you.
-
Click Save Integration
In PagerTreeβ
Create a Stakeholderβ
- Enable Advanced Mode.
- Create a stakeholder group.
- Paste the Slack email address in the additional emails section of the PagerTree stakeholder.
- Click Create.
Test it Outβ
π Now test it out by manually creating an incident in PagerTree. You should see Slack shows a notification in the #stakeholder channel.

I hope you found this useful, and can use it to keep stakeholders informed during ongoing incidents.
