You have the ability to configure Slack notifications for PR activities like review requests, comments, mentions, and status changes. For some PRs, you can also approve, comment, request changes, or merge directly from Slack.

Prerequisites

• A Slack workspace (free or paid)

Install Graphite for Slack

Install the Graphite integration for Slack directly from the notifications settings page on the Graphite app.

After adding your Slack workspace, you will be prompted to give the Graphite app permissions to proceed.

In the future, you can modify the Graphite App's access to select workspaces and channels through this settings page.

Set up real-time notifications

After you've installed the integration, you can enable real-time notifications in the notifications settings page on the Graphite app. You can configure which types of events you want to receive notifications for.

Reviewing and merging PRs from Slack

The Slack integration gives you the option to directly review and merge PRs from Slack. No extra setup is needed: simply enable Slack notifications for Review requests and Activity on your PRs. Reviewing from Slack is available for PRs of up to 25 lines.
