Troubleshooting

Rate Limiting Error

If you're attempting to create or update a notification rule and are receiving the following error: "Slack rate limit exceeded.", you should enter channel ID instead of the channel Name and wait for a minute. If your workspace has a lot of channels, we advise your to directly add the channel ID next time.

To find a channel's ID in Slack click the name of the channel at the top of the application and the channel ID will be displayed at the bottom of the modal.
