Slack notifications — what you'll receive
Once Slack is connected, you can route Katalyz events to Slack. Here's everything you can get.
Event types that can fire Slack notifications
Settings → Notifications groups every event into six categories. Each row has three checkboxes — App, Email and Slack — so you decide per event which channels it reaches.

Where notifications go
Slack notifications come from the Katalyz bot as direct messages. There's no channel-vs-DM choice per event type — everything is delivered to you via DM from the bot.
Frequency
At the top of Settings → Notifications, the Slack channel card carries its own frequency dropdown and an on/off toggle — both per user:
- Instantly — each event posts as it happens
- Daily digest — one grouped message
To stop Slack notifications entirely, switch the Slack channel toggle off. There is no "Never" frequency.
