Using the Custom email notification list feature, you can integrate Stitch notifications with your Slack workspace.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through integrating your Stitch notifications with Slack using Slack’s email integration features: Email forwarding and the Email app.

Prerequisites

  • A Stitch Enterprise plan. The Custom email notification list is available only on a Stitch Enterprise plan.

  • An existing Slack account. Depending on ]the method you want to use to integrate with Slack](#configure-slack), you may need a Slack Standard or Plus plan.

Step 1: Configure Slack

Using one of the two following methods, you can integrate Stitch email notifications with Slack:

Option 1: Integrate using a forwarding address

Slack’s forwarding address feature enables you to forward emails to your Slack workspace. Emails sent to the forwarding address are received in your direct message with Slackbot.

Option 2: Integrate using the Slack Email app

Slack’s Email app automatically routes emails to the channel or direct message in Slack that you specify.
