<!-- Answer --> DevLake currently supports sending notifications via HTTP POST requests to a specified endpoint, which can be configured in the `.env` file using `NOTIFICATION_ENDPOINT` and `NOTIFICATION_SECRET` <sup>[[1]](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake-website/blob/main/versioned_docs/version-v0.19/DeveloperManuals/Notifications.md)</sup>. However, there is no built-in feature specifically for sending notifications to Slack when metrics cross configurable thresholds. To implement this feature, you can leverage the existing Slack integration located in the `backend/plugins/slack/` directory <sup>[[2]](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/main/backend/plugins/slack/impl/impl.go)</sup>. You would need to extend the notification system to support Slack notifications by: 1. **Configuring Metrics and Thresholds**: Define the metrics and their thresholds in the Grafana dashboard JSON files, such as `EngineeringOverview.json` and `AzureDevOps.json` <sup>[[3]](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/main/grafana/dashboards/EngineeringOverview.json)</sup><sup>[[4]](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/main/grafana/dashboards/AzureDevOps.json)</sup>. 2. **Triggering Notifications**: Implement logic to monitor these thresholds in real-time and trigger notifications when thresholds are crossed. This logic is not explicitly detailed in the current codebase, so you may need to add this functionality. 3. **Sending Slack Notifications**: Use the existing Slack plugin to format and send messages. The implementation details for sending messages can be found in `impl/impl.go` and `tasks/task_data.go` <sup>[[2]](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/main/backend/plugins/slack/impl/impl.go)</sup><sup>[[5]](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/main/backend/plugins/slack/tasks/task_data.go)</sup>. By following these steps, you can extend DevLake to send Slack notifications when metrics cross specified thresholds. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To continue talking to [Dosu](https://dosu.dev), mention @dosu.* -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
