Slack Notification Features

Matia’s Slack integration offers several powerful features:

  1. In-Slack Issue Management: Update issue statuses directly from Slack without accessing Matia.

    • Available statuses: Open, Acknowledged, Closed

  2. Real-time Synchronization: Status updates in Matia are reflected in Slack and vice versa.

  3. Automatic Resolution: When Matia detects an issue has been resolved, it automatically closes the issue and updates the Slack message.
