Configuration

Accesing pluging Settings (on GoCD)

Settings 1 Settings 2

Access Go Server API

This plugin requires access to Go API to fetch status of previous job execution and material changes. If you are enforced to login before you can access the main pipelines screen, you need to provide a valid user/password to our plugin.

  1. Enter plugin settings
  2. Enter API username and password: Settings 3

Adding Slack notifications

As this pluging needs to resolve user's email into a Slack ID, a WebHook is not enough to work. You need to install our Slack App into your team and get an API token.

Profile Warning
You may see this warning when authorizing our app to work with your team. We will only access your team profile in order to match a email from a Material change into a Slack ID

  1. Install our app into your team:
    Add to Slack
  2. Copy your Slack API Token into GoCD's plugin configuration
  3. (optional) Configure a custom channel or slack id for the bot. If a channel is set, messages will still @mention a user. If not set, commits with an author that can't be resolved to a user in Slack will be posted to #general by default. Enter plugin settings and then: Settings 4

Adding Email notifications

  1. Configure your SMTP server details
  2. If you SMTP requires authentication, provide your account/password
  3. Provide a From email, the one our plugin will be sending email on behalf
  4. Provide an optional CC, this email will copied every time an email is sent
