  9. By default the channel is not assigned to any Service. To start receiving alerts for a specific Service, navigate to the Service and assign the channel to the service from Service specific settings.

    A same channel can be assigned to multiple Services at the same time. Once a channel is assigned to a Service, whenever the Service is degraded, an alert will be sent on that Slack Channel.

    When Last9 detects a service as resolved, it will automatically send a resolved alert message on the same channel
