What’s new in the GitHub and Slack integration

The GitHub and Slack integration has been enhanced with new features aimed at improving project management efficiency by allowing users to manage deployments, checks, and draft pull requests directly from Slack. Users can now list and create deployments using the Deployments API without leaving their Slack channel, and they can view the status of checks and receive notifications about new draft pull requests, all within Slack. To use these new functionalities, GitHub organization owners or repository admins must accept updated permissions. The integration is open source, inviting contributions and feedback from the community to further develop its capabilities, and is built using the same public APIs as other GitHub and Slack applications.
