# Slack

> Send deadline alerts to a Slack channel when findings pass their SLA.

## Overview

Connect Slack and Tierity posts to a channel when findings pass their deadline, so overdue work doesn't depend on someone checking the Workbench.

## Setup

**1. Open Slack in Tierity**

Go to **Config → Integrations → Slack**.

**2. Authorize**

Connect Slack, then choose your workspace and the channel to post to and click **Allow** in Slack. You're sent back to Tierity when it's done.

**3. Test it**

Click **Test connection** to check a message arrives in the channel.

## What gets posted

**SLA breach alerts.** Tierity checks deadlines every hour. When findings pass their [SLA](https://docs.tierity.com/features/findings.md#deadlines-sla-policies), it posts one summary per organization, grouped by severity:

```
SLA Breach: 4 findings overdue
• 1 critical — exceeded 7-day SLA
  – SQL injection in report export
• 3 high — exceeded 14-day SLA
  – Admin without MFA: j.doe@example.com
  – …
```

Findings that are still overdue are posted again every week until they're fixed, so a breach doesn't quietly age out of view.

## Other channels

The same alerts can also go to **Discord**, **email** or any **webhook** endpoint. Each channel is configured separately in **Config → Integrations**, and each can be turned on or off on its own.

## Disconnecting

Go to **Config → Integrations → Slack** and click **Disconnect**. To remove the app from your workspace as well, uninstall it from Slack's app management page.
