Slack Integration
Go get a free account and your whole team can have a proper chat app with rooms, permissions, integrations, a mobile app that doesn't suck, and oh yeah - it integrates with your account.
1. Head to the App Center and you'll see the new Slack app

2. Click the link to add an incoming webhook integration into your Slack account
3. Copy the post URL link they provide into your Slack app card settings page
4. Go to Admin -> Notification Center and create a new rule, select anything you want to show up in your slack chatroom
5. Optionally, you can setup notifications in Slack for a specific room too - so these could give you push notifications and desktop notifications for some actions

Looking for the Slack Bot integration?
First - go add a "slash command" here
Set it up like this:
URL: https://admin.repairshopr.com/api/v1/slack/seattle
Token: They generate it, copy it into your Slack app card settings page

It should get put here in Admin > App Center > Slack 'App Card':


3 Characters you must encode as HTML entities
There are three characters you must convert to HTML entities and only three: &, <, and >.
Slack will take care of the rest.
* Replace the ampersand, &, with &
* Replace the less-than sign, < with <
* Replace the greater-than sign, > with >
Variables
Some messages contain special words with extra behavior. For these, we use the format <!foo>, where foo is a special command. Currently defined commands are !channel, !here, and !everyone. These indicate an @channel, @here, or @everyone message, and should cause a notification to be displayed by the client.
Note that to display @here on older mobile clients you will need to specify a label with the <!here> command (eg. <!here|here>).
