GitNotifier overview

Step 1 - Create your GitNotifier dashboard account

Start at www.gitnotifier.com/dashboard, create your account, and then follow the next steps below!
Only the GitHub/Slack admin needs to create a GitNotifier account and complete the installation through the UI. Once installed, any team members can join from slack with one click.

Step 2 - Install the GitHub App

Install GitNotifier on your GitHub account or organization from the dashboard. If you are not a GitHub organization admin, GitHub will let you request the installation instead. A GitHub organization admin can then approve that request directly in GitHub. GitHub documents this flow here: Requesting a GitHub App from your organization owner. When you submit the request, GitHub notifies your organization owner so they can review and approve the installation.

Step 3 - Connect your Slack Workspace

In the dashboard, connect Slack and authorize the workspace. And you are good to go! 🎉

How to get your teammates onboard?

Normal team members can join with 3 current ways:
  1. Get invited from Slack App Home (any existing GitNotifier Slack user can invite teammates).
  2. Open the GitNotifier app in Slack (@gitnotifier App Home) and follow the connect flow.
  3. Run /gitnotifier connect in Slack.

If Connection Requires Reauthorization

If Slack shows Reconnect required, click Reconnect GitHub in App Home and complete OAuth again.
