Guides How-to

Get GitHub pull request notifications in Slack — without the firehose.

Route each repository to the right Slack channel, keep one living thread per PR, and mention mapped reviewers.

How it works

Four steps from connection to a useful conversation.

  1. 1

    Connect GitHub as a source and Slack as a destination in Connections.

  2. 2

    Create a route from a repository to a Slack channel and choose the review events to relay.

  3. 3

    Map reviewers under People so requests mention real Slack users.

  4. 4

    Optionally enable one-thread-per-request, check status, and a single stale-review reminder.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting.

Yes. Create one route per repository-to-channel pairing — for example reviews in #eng-reviews and merges in #releases.

With One thread per request on, the first event posts in the channel and later updates for that pull request stay in its thread.

ForgeRelay falls back to the GitHub handle as plain text instead of mentioning the wrong person.
