My notifications stopped working

If your Slack notifications from Marker.io have stopped working, follow these steps to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

  1. Check Slack Channel Status: Ensure that the specific Slack channel, where you expect to receive notifications, still exists and is not muted. Sometimes channels are archived or settings might be changed inadvertently.

    a. Navigate to your Marker.io project and select 'Settings'.

    b. Go to the 'Notifications' section.

    c. Find the Slack channel in question and click on the 'X' beside the channel's name to remove it from the notifications list.

  3. Re-add the Slack Channel: After disconnecting, re-add the channel to re-establish the connection.

    a. In the same 'Notifications' section, select the option to add a channel.

    b. Choose the desired Slack channel from the list and confirm your choice.

  4. Test Notifications: Send a test notification to ensure that the integration is working correctly.
