| Property  | Value                                     |
| --------- | ----------------------------------------- |

Warrn sends alert notifications to your Slack channels. There are two ways to connect.

## Slack OAuth (recommended)

Connects your entire Slack workspace to Warrn. Notifications post as a branded Warrn bot.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect your workspace">
    In Warrn, go to **Settings > Integrations**. Find Slack and click **Connect**. Authorize Warrn in your workspace.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select channels">
    Once connected, choose which channels receive notifications per service.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Use a [bot account](/integrations/bot-account) when authorizing if you don't want the connection tied to a personal account.
</Note>

## Slack Webhook

For simpler setups without OAuth. Configure per service.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a webhook in Slack">
    In Slack, create an [Incoming Webhook](https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks) and copy the URL.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add it to a service in Warrn">
    Open a service or team in Warrn. Go to the **Integrations** tab, add **Slack Webhook**, and paste the webhook URL.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What gets sent

Alert creation, acknowledgement, and resolution events. Each notification includes the alert name, severity, service, team, and a link back to Warrn.
