Cortex XDR enables you to integrate the Slack messaging application for outbound notifications to be received by Slack recipients.
Integrate the app with your Slack workspace to better manage and highlight your Cortex XDR alerts and reports. By creating a Cortex XDR Slack channel, you ensure that defined Cortex XDR alerts are exposed on laptop and mobile devices using the Slack interface. Unlike email notifications, Slack channels are dedicated to spaces that you can use to contact specific members regarding your Cortex XDR alerts.
Important
Once configured, only a Slack Administrator (Workspace Owner) with permissions to disable integrations from a channel, can remove the Cortex XDR Slack channel. For more information about how to remove a custom integration in Slack, see Remove apps and custom integrations from your workspace.
