Сan I create a Slack Channel from an incident using the api?

[Иван Шелестов]

I want to create an incident via the API inside my app and then create a Slack chat channel for the incident via the API. How can I do this?
I was thinking of making a request in the internal opsgenie API along the path /webapi/incidents/incnum/chat/create-channel
, but I don't know how to log in

Hi @Иван Шелестов ,

There is no public API available to create a slack channel from an incident via API. You could leverage Slack's API To create the channel, but the channel wouldn't be linked to the incident of course.

We can enter a feature request for a way to trigger the slack channel to be created from the incident via API.

Thanks,

Samir

Hi Samir.
Thanks for you reply.

It would be great if you could make such a method. Will there be any notification if such a method is added?
