How do I display top level component name in Status

[Priyadarshini R Kolwalkar]

Hi, 

I have a Slack integration via Apps (https://manage.statuspage.io/pages/<page>/slack) for my StatusPage which sends a notification during an outage or when a new incident is created. 

This is how it appears on Slack:

MyStatus page

Statuspage Automation parsed a monitoring alert and updated component Foobar from Operational to Major Outage.
Manage your Components

It doesn't mention which top level component "Foobar" belongs to.  

How do I get this included in the Slack notification or is that a limitation ?

Thanks,

Priya

Hello Priya,

This is Jesse from the Statuspage support team. This is a limitation of the Slack integration. Since this is the Slack integration via Apps, it is taking whatever is in your activity log and sending that in the messages. If you go into your page > activity log, you can see what it will send.

In this case, I would recommend the Slack notifications as set up here: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Statuspage-articles/New-feature-Slack-notifications-for-Statuspage/ba-p/1510473

That does show the group the component belongs to, unlike the one that uses the activity log. Please let mw know if you have any questions.

Regards,
Jesse
