Channel strategies

Dedicated channel

Create a dedicated #security-alerts channel for all notifications.

Multiple channels

Route by severity or project for better organization.
ChannelNotifications
#security-criticalCritical and high findings only
#security-activityAll scan completions
#project-specificProject-related alerts

Best practices

Create a dedicated channel for security notifications to avoid noise in general channels.
Keep your webhook URL confidential. Anyone with the URL can send messages to your channel.
  • Use channel permissions to control who can see notifications
  • Consider muting the channel and checking periodically for non-critical alerts
  • Enable notifications for critical findings only

Troubleshooting

  • Verify the webhook URL is correct
  • Check that the webhook hasn’t been deleted in Discord
  • Ensure the channel still exists
  • Verify the URL format is valid
  • Check that a webhook with the same name doesn’t already exist
