Connect Slack for portal notifications

How to get there: Click Settings in the sidebar → Integrations tab → Slack section.

Get a Slack message the moment something changes on your portal: a new post, a status update, a new comment, or a new vote.

Set up the Slack webhook

  1. In Slack, create an Incoming Webhook and pick the channel you want notifications in. Slack will give you a URL that starts with https://hooks.slack.com/services/....
  2. In ProductLift, go to Settings → Integrations → Slack and paste the URL into Post updates to Slack channel.
  3. Click Save.

Leave the URL blank at any time to fully turn Slack notifications off.

Choose which events go to Slack

Under the Slack URL you can pick which of the four supported events should be posted to your channel:

  • New post (post.created)
  • Post status changed (post.status_changed)
  • New comment (comment.created)
  • New vote (vote.created)

Uncheck any event you don't want in Slack. This is per-portal, so each portal can have its own selection.

What about deletions?

Slack notifications are intentionally for high-signal, human-readable events. Deletion pings (post deleted, comment deleted, vote removed) are not sent to Slack because they tend to spam channels without adding decision value.

If you need every lifecycle event (including deletions) in another system, use Webhooks instead: webhooks support the full event list and are designed for systems that want to consume the data programmatically.
