Background

Vulcan currently supports notifications via Email and Slack:

Email notifications are centered around reviews:

• Emails are sent to project admins CC’ing the user requesting a review.
• Users receive an email when a request is approved, revoked, or when more changes are requested.

Slack notifications currently support:

• Project creation, removal, & renaming
• Component creation and removal
• SRG upload & removal
• Assigning & removing Vulcan admin
• Adding/removing member from a project or component
• Updating member role

Currently, a single private channel can be set in the app configuration for Slack notifications.
