Widgetbook Cloud integrates with Slack to keep your team informed about visual pull requests that need review. Notifications are sent automatically to your Slack workspace, ensuring that reviews don't go unnoticed.
Slack notifications are sent when a visual pull request requires review. Each notification includes:
- Pull request number and title
- Direct link to view changes in Widgetbook Cloud
- Workspace and project name
Notifications appear as Slack messages with a yellow accent to draw attention.
Notifications are only sent for pull requests with "pending review" status. Approved pull requests or those with "changes requested" do not trigger notifications.
You need admin access to your Widgetbook Cloud workspace and permission to install apps in your Slack workspace.
Open workspace settings
Navigate to your Widgetbook Cloud workspace and open the General Settings page.
Connect to Slack
Find the Slack integration section and click "Connect to Slack".
You'll be redirected to Slack's authorization page.
Authorize Widgetbook
Select the Slack workspace you want to connect and grant Widgetbook permission to post messages via incoming webhooks.
You'll be redirected back to Widgetbook Cloud once authorization is complete.
Verify configuration
Confirm that the Slack integration shows as connected in your workspace settings.
The integration is now active for all projects in your workspace.
The Slack integration is configured at the workspace level:
- Set it up once per Widgetbook workspace
- All projects within the workspace send notifications to the configured Slack channel
- No per-project configuration needed
To stop receiving Slack notifications, go to your workspace General Settings and disconnect the Slack integration. This will disable all notifications for that workspace.
