# Slack notifications

> Send workspace and project updates to a shared Slack channel for your whole team.

Slack notifications are configured **team-wide** under **Workspace settings**.
Once a workspace admin connects Slack and selects a channel, Openlayer sends
workspace and project updates to that channel so everyone stays informed without
each member configuring their own preferences.

## Connect Slack

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open workspace notification settings">
    Click your workspace name in the upper-left corner and select **Settings**.
    In the sidebar, under **Workspace settings**, click **Notifications**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect Slack">
    Under **Slack channel notifications**, click **Connect Slack**. You'll be
    redirected to Slack to authorize Openlayer and select the channel where
    notifications should be sent.
  </Step>
</Steps>

For the full connection walkthrough, including the authorization screens, see
the [Slack integration guide](/integrations/slack).

## Manage notification preferences

Once Slack is connected, you can choose which events are sent and how they're
grouped by channel:

* **General** — sends notifications for all projects in your workspace to a
  single selected channel.
* **Per project** — sends each project's notifications to a channel you choose
  for that project.

In both cases, you can select which events trigger notifications, such as test
status updates, new projects, and new members joining.
