Mute bot notifications #97

Closed RobertoUa closed 3 years ago

RobertoUa commented 4 years ago

Sometimes I want to mute notifications sent by teamcity bot in slack. But there's no option to do that.

alexkvak commented 4 years ago

That's true.

Could you provide some details on your working flow? Why do you need to mute notifications?

RobertoUa commented 4 years ago

Why do you need to mute notifications

various reasons. For example, it's evening (or I'm done working) and I want to receive only important notifications. TC alerts are not important and there're many of them so I want to mute them.

For this reason you can use your Slack app notifications and tune them for your experience.

what do you mean? I can tune channel notifications or global notifications. But not teamcity notifications. That was the reason to create this issue.

alexkvak commented 4 years ago

You can setup notifications in your Slack app, of course for yourself

RobertoUa commented 4 years ago

how?

Yeah, I'm aware of that. I guess you misunderstood me. Since this is a bot and not a channel I can't control notification settings by default. Nothing in the TC app settings in slack. Nothing in the plugin on TC. I tried everything to mute this bot because it's very annoying. If I won't figure out how to do it I will disable it. We also have a notification in a channel (not personalized) and ofc I can mute that channel, but again, I'm talking about the bot sending me private messages.

I see now, there is no way to mute notifications from bot.

Note: We’re working on ways to give you more control over notifications from bots and apps in your workspace — stay tuned!

I guess this feature is only Slack responsibility, not the bot itself.

Sorry about that.

You can only mute all notifications on your mobile in non-working hours. I did the same.

RobertoUa commented 4 years ago

I see. Thank you for your reply.

I believe the bot has to have some configuration. It shouldn't have only one option "send everything at any time". And both in slack and in TeamCity. And no filtering whatsoever. It just doesn't sound right.

I guess we will have to delete the bot for our team everyone is very annoyed ;(

Anyway, thank you for this project!
