Slack

Pull requests and failures in a channel.

Basemode can post to a Slack channel whenever a sync opens or updates a pull request, changes tokens, or fails. A sync with nothing new stays quiet.

Set it up

  1. In Slack, create an incoming webhook for the channel you want, such as #design-system.
  2. In the design system's Settings, paste the webhook address under Slack and save.

The address is encrypted and never shown again. Paste a new one to replace it, or clear it to stop posting.

What gets posted

One line per sync, with a link to the pull request when there is one:

Brand system: 6 token changes in a pull request. https://github.com/acme/web/pull/214
Brand system failed to sync: Connect Figma and add a file in Settings, or publish from the Basemode plugin.

Everyone who manages the design system also gets the same notice in Basemode, so nobody has to watch the channel to hear about a failure.
