Slack app for monitoring backend services #1
Comments
VRMS already has a app installed. We need to review this and update this app to take in webhooks and have a queue that processes messages, so that any project at hfla can use it for any message its wants to send either on a schedule or one time. Related issues |

I stopped working on this and I've unassigned myself. Here's my brain dump of where this left off. Someone else seems to be working on the same thing over at VRMS although I can't find an issue for it on their issues tracker. I had a slack conversation with Tim Shaker, must be before May 12, about his work on a similar or maybe the same slack app/bot we're talking about here. He replicated some VRMS tables like user, project, meeting and was going to generate reminder messages. This is roughly what I remember. |
Somehow I'm not able to upload a screenshot right now, but here's the relevant VRMS message from May 16, 2022 about his slack app project that I'm still able to see: 7:11 PM |

closing this issue in favor of a new format for gathering requirements for a new bot platform #67 |
Overview
When backend services go down, it would be convenient if the relevant team could be notified on Slack so they can address the issue.

Note that our slack account is limited to 10 apps, and we've already got 10 installed. So in order for this to work, one of those other apps would have to be bumped.
