# Notifications

> Slack, Teams, and webhook alerts

## Setup

Go to **Notification Channels** in the dashboard sidebar to add a webhook.

### Slack

1. Create a Slack webhook at [api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks](https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks)
2. In ChangeGuard, click **Add Channel** → type: `slack`, paste the webhook URL

### Microsoft Teams

1. Create an Incoming Webhook connector in your Teams channel
2. In ChangeGuard, click **Add Channel** → type: `teams`, paste the webhook URL

### Generic Webhook

Any endpoint that accepts JSON POST requests. ChangeGuard sends:

```json theme={null}
{
  "event": "Score Drop",
  "title": "Cluster production CSC score dropped to 42 (threshold: 70)",
  "detail": "5 active risks detected",
  "source": "changeguard",
  "timestamp": "2026-03-16T12:00:00Z"
}
```

## Alert Rules

Create rules that trigger notifications on specific conditions:

| Condition      | Description                              |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| `score_drop`   | CSC score falls below a threshold        |
| `degraded_app` | Deployments with zero available replicas |

A catch-all alert fires when any cluster's CSC score drops below 50.

## Managing Channels

* **List:** `GET /api/notifications/channels`
* **Create:** `POST /api/notifications/channels`
* **Delete:** `DELETE /api/notifications/channels`

All operations require operator role or higher.
