Get Eddie notifications in Slack or Microsoft Teams
Post project updates — ready, exports, comments, failures — to a Slack or Teams channel your team already watches.
Eddie can post project updates straight into a channel your team already watches — Slack or Microsoft Teams. The connection lives on the workspace (the owner sets it up once); delivery is per project, off by default, so only the projects you switch on ever post.
What gets posted
- Project ready — the import finished and the project is ready to explore.
- Import failed — media didn't make it in (with a link to retry).
- Export complete — an MP4 render or NLE export finished.
- New comment — someone commented on an edit.
- Low credit balance — the workspace is running low. (This one is workspace-wide — it posts even for projects whose own switch is off, at most once a day.)
Every message names the project and links straight to it. Each event type can be toggled per channel, and messages never include your footage or transcripts — just names, counts and links.
Connect Slack (workspace owner)
- In Slack, create an incoming webhook for the channel you want: install the official Incoming Webhooks app from the Slack Marketplace, pick the channel, and copy the webhook URL (it starts with
hooks.slack.com/services/). - In Eddie, open Integrations from your dashboard (that link opens it directly).
- Choose Connect next to Slack, paste the webhook URL, add a label like
#video-team, and connect. Eddie sends a test message to the channel immediately so you know it works.
Connect Microsoft Teams (workspace owner)
Teams retired its old "connectors" — the current way is a Workflows webhook:
- In Teams, hover the channel you want, choose ⋯ → Workflows, and pick the template "Send webhook alerts to a channel" (its trigger is When a Teams webhook request is received). Save it and copy the webhook URL Teams shows you.
- In Eddie, open Integrations from your dashboard.
- Choose Connect next to Microsoft Teams, paste the URL, label it, and connect. Eddie sends a test card to the channel.
Turn it on per project
Connecting posts nothing by itself. In any project, open the bell in the header and switch on Slack / Teams updates — from then on that project's events post to the channel. Anyone who can edit the project can flip it, and you can turn it off the same way.
Troubleshooting
- The test message never arrived — re-copy the webhook URL end-to-end; a truncated paste is the usual cause. For Teams, make sure the workflow is turned on in the Workflows app.
- Events stopped posting — the settings panel shows the last delivery status per channel. If the webhook was deleted on the Slack/Teams side, disconnect and connect a fresh one.
- A project isn't posting — check its bell: the per-project switch is off by default, including for brand-new projects.
- Wrong channel — the webhook determines the channel. Create a webhook in the right channel and reconnect.
