[REST API] activate/edit the Slack notification of a repository by using the REST API

Werbewind Dev

In the repo settings of a project there is a tab called "Chat Notifications". In this tab you can connect your repo with a Slack-Workspace in order to get a notification if "xyz" happens.

Is there a way to activate/edit the Slack notification of a repository by using the REST API too?

Hello Lars and welcome to the Community!

The Bitbucket cloud to Slack integration is an app integration with triggers allows for customization of notifications/alerts within Slack. While it’s not directly the REST API, you may use webhooks to trigger notifications to Slack from Bitbucket. More about webhooks for Bitbucket cloud may be found at Manage webhooks. Along with the additional features within the Bitbucket cloud slack app at Bitbucket Cloud for Slack.

I hope this proves helpful and you’re able to create custom notifications outside of the abilities of the app.
