An official GitHub Action from Slack for sending data to Slack and running Slack CLI commands within GitHub Actions workflows. It supports Workflow Builder webhooks, Slack API methods with tokens, incoming webhooks, and Slack CLI commands.
Use cases
- notify a Slack channel when a CI build fails
- send deployment status messages to Slack from GitHub Actions
- trigger a Slack Workflow Builder workflow from a GitHub workflow
- post release announcements to Slack automatically
- run Slack CLI commands in CI pipelines
When to choose
- you want to send Slack notifications from GitHub Actions workflows
- you need to trigger Slack Workflow Builder workflows from CI events
- you want an official, maintained integration with Slack API methods or incoming webhooks
When to avoid
- you need to send Slack notifications from CI systems other than GitHub Actions
- you need a full Slack bot or app runtime rather than workflow-triggered messaging
- your pipeline runs outside GitHub's Actions environment
