Route New Bugsnag Issues Straight Into Slack

Every new Bugsnag issue or error is enriched with its key details and pushed to Slack so the right people see it immediately — no more issues sitting unnoticed until someone checks the dashboard.

  1. 1

    Step 1 — Trigger on new issue

    Add the Bugsnag trigger (or webhook) for new issues/events. For Bugsnag, filter to the labels or severity you care about.

  2. 2

    Step 2 — Extract the essentials

    Add a Set node capturing title, severity, a short description and the link back to Bugsnag.

  3. 3

    Step 3 — Prioritise (optional)

    Add an If/Switch on severity so critical items page a channel while the rest go to the normal queue.

  4. 4

    Step 4 — Post to Slack

    Add a Slack node. Set Resource to Message and Operation to Send. Choose the channel (e.g. #alerts) and drop the title, severity and link into the message text using expressions like {{ $json.summary }}. Connect your Slack OAuth or bot-token credential.

Frequently asked questions

Can I avoid duplicate pings?

De-duplicate on the Bugsnag issue ID before Step 4, and for recurring errors set a cooldown so a flapping issue doesn't spam Slack.

Two-way sync possible?

This is one-way by default. For two-way, add a second workflow that listens to Slack changes and writes status back to Bugsnag.
