You can easily use a Slack channel as the target for your alerts. For this, you will need to create an Incoming Hook URL that can be used for delivering messages to a specific Slack channel.

Start by going to and select an existing App or create a specific App to be used for Taskforce.sh:

Now, open your application and go to the Basic Information section and click the "Incoming Webhooks" card.

From the Incoming Webhooks you can just create a new hook for a given channel:

You can then select which channel to post the alerts on:

Your hook URL will now appear on the list of Webhook URLs

You can just copy the given URL and paste it into your monitor's settings:

That's all, from now on, every time an alert is produced you will get a message on the given slack channel:
