Slack App

You will need permission to approve apps in your Slack workspace. Before installing the app, create a new channel where the alerts will be sent. The channel is named paraxial_alerts in this example

Before installing, ensure the Paraxial.io user doing the install is a site admin on all sites you want to receive alerts for. If you are only a site user, that site will not send Slack notifications. This information is available in "site settings".
