There are two methods for configuring users. An administrator can add users; however, it is also possible for users to configure their own settings.
The process of configuring users for CloudBees CI Slack Integration involves the following steps:
Adding a user
Before you can add a user, you need the following information about the user:
-
CloudBees CI user Id: The user’s CloudBees CI user Id can be found in their profile information on the controller.
-
Slack email: The Slack user’s email that is associated with the Slack workspace where messages should be delivered. This email address is used to retrieve the user’s Slack ID.
-
SCM Id: When a PR is built, if the GitHub or Bitbucket author matches the user in the plugin, the CloudBees Slack Integration Plugin sends a notification to the linked Slack ID.
-
From your CloudBees CI controller, navigate to Manage Jenkins > CloudBees Slack Integration.
-
Select User Management.
-
Select Add User.
-
Enable the user to receive messages by turning on the Receiving Notifications toggle.
-
Enter the following information about the user:
-
CloudBees CI user Id: This is the user’s CloudBees CI user Id which can be found in their profile information on the controller.
-
Slack email: The Slack user’s email that is associated with the Slack workspace where messages should be delivered.
-
SCM Id: The SCM Id is used to pull notifications when the user creates a PR and it is built.
-
-
Select Save.
Testing a user configuration
After you have added a user, you can test that the configuration has been set correctly by selecting Send Test Message on the user’s profile page.
