slack [Feature Request] Send only message if issue was closed

[Feature Request] Send only message if issue was closed

Open spethso opened this issue 6 years ago • 8 comments

Currently, there is only the option to subscribe the feature "Issues". The GitHub App sends messages if an issue is opened, closed or reopened. Using a slack channel to be notified about the Sprint progress might only use notifications if a issue has been closed, which is not able at the moment. In the meantime a product owner can open several new issues (backlog items) which might not be interesting right now for the rest of the team or even confusing in regard to the sprint progress. Therefore it would be great to have subscription feature to only get notifications if an issue has been closed. In the following as user story.

As a developer in agile development, I want the GitHub Slack Integration only to notify me if an issue has been closed so that I can progress better the whole Sprint progress.

We need the mirror feature :) I just need to be notified about issues opened.

Hey everybody. Are you suggesting something like: /github subscribe org/repo issues:closed /github subscribe org/repo issues:opened

I opened and closed would be named after the corresponding Event action

Another use case here is we have a bot which automatically closes old issues and we get slack spammed with closure messages, when really we are only interested in new issues people create.
