Jenkins Slack integration

Question

I want to use the Slack plugin in Jenkins to ping notifications to a Slack channel.

Jenkins says success when I test the connection, but I don\'t receive any notificatio

Answer 1

If you want to receive notifications using Jenkins declarative pipelines, you can install the Slack plugin, and then use it in the pipeline in this way:

    stage('Clone sources') {
        steps {
            slackSend (channel: "#mychannel", color: '#FFFF00', message: "STARTED: Job '${env.JOB_NAME} [${env.BUILD_NUMBER}]' (${env.BUILD_URL})")
            git credentialsId: 'git_credentials', poll: false, branch: 'develop', url: 'https://mysource.com/mysimplenodejsexample.git'
        }        
    }

Result:

You can customize your message of course. Full example at:
