            "text": "Vault Login",
            "emoji": true
          },
          "value": "vault",
          "url": "https://keepersecurity.com/vault",
          "action_id": "actionId-1"
        },
        {

      ]
    }
  ]
}

HTTP Body

(10) Click Save on the recipient and Save the alert.

Add Webhook

Save Alert

That's it. Please note that it can take up to 15 minutes for events to start transmitting. You can modify the HTTP Body according to your preferences. Slack's Block Kit Builder allows you to customize the look and feel completely.

Creating new Webhook body content and editing content may take up to 15 minutes to take effect.

💡Slack - Shared Record Notifications

Another use case is to be notified when a record is added to a particular Shared Folder.

Example Shared Record Notification

(1) Follow the Slack setup steps above to create a baseline Slack integration.

(2) In the Web Vault, grab the Shared Folder UID that you would like to report on

Shared Folder UID

(3) On the Admin Console, create a new Alert for this event that is tracking "Add Record to Shared Folder"

Alert on Record Added to Shared Folder

(4) Under the Attributes section, paste the Shared Folder UID

Add Shared Folder UID

(5) Under "Recipients", create a new Webhook recipient.

(6) Copy Paste the below JSON text body into the HTTP Body section. In the "text" field, you will want to edit it to match up with the alert that you are creating.

{
  "text": "Keeper - Added Record to Shared Folder",
  "blocks": [
    {
      "type": "section",
      "fields": [
        {
          "type": "mrkdwn",
          "text": "*Alert Name*\n#alert_name"
        }
      ]
    },
