Overview

Notifications are a powerful feature in Chainloop that keeps users informed about important events and updates within the platform. They help ensure that users stay up-to-date with the latest activities related to their projects, workflows, and compliance status. Notifications can be configured to alert users about various events, such as:
  • System status events (like storage backend issues)
  • Product Compliance changes
  • Product releases
  • etc.

​
Configuring Notifications

Notification integrations can be configured through the Platform UI, in the integrations section, where Fan-out integrations can be configured as well. The configuration of each notification channel may vary, depending on the specific requirements of the channel. Some channels may require additional setup, such as providing API keys or webhook URLs. They are kept safe in the platform secret storage. Integrations Current available notification integrations include:
  • Email (using instance SMTP server)
Email Notification requires SMTP configuration at the instance level. If you don’t see this integration available, please contact your Chainloop administrator to configure SMTP settings. For detailed instance configuration instructions, refer to the SMTP configuration guide.
  • Microsoft Teams (webhooks)
You can find more information on how to create a Teams webhook URL in the Microsoft Teams documentation.
More channels will be added in future releases.
