Connect Slack to receive real-time notifications from VIS42 agents. When an agent completes a task, detects an overdue invoice, or flags an issue that needs attention, it posts a message directly to your channel — no need to check back in the app.

​
What notifications are sent

VIS42 agents send notifications for events such as:
  • Payment reminders — when a receivable or payable is approaching its due date
  • Overdue invoices — when a document passes its due date without payment
  • Audit alerts — when Pluto flags a compliance issue or completes a review
  • Task updates — when an agent finishes a long-running task and has results to share
Each notification includes a title and a message body describing what happened.

​
Set up Slack notifications

To receive notifications in Slack, you need an incoming webhook URL for the channel where messages should appear.
1

Create a Slack webhook

In Slack, go to Apps → search for Incoming Webhooks → click Add to Slack. Select the channel you want VIS42 to post to, then click Add Incoming Webhooks integration. Copy the Webhook URL.
2

Add the webhook to VIS42

In VIS42, go to Settings → Notifications → Slack. Paste the webhook URL and click Save.
3

Test the connection

Click Send test message to confirm VIS42 can reach your channel.

​
Choose your notification channel

Each user can set their own preferred notification channel. Go to Profile → Notification preferences and choose between Email, Slack, or Microsoft Teams for each notification type. Your preference only affects notifications addressed to you — the shared channel webhook is configured at the business level in Settings.

​
Privacy and scope

  • The webhook URL is stored per business and encrypted at rest.
  • VIS42 only posts to the channel you configure — it cannot read messages from your Slack workspace.
  • To stop notifications, remove the webhook URL from Settings → Notifications → Slack and click Save.

​
Troubleshooting

Check that the webhook URL is correct in Settings → Notifications → Slack and use Send test message to verify. If the Slack app was reinstalled or the channel was deleted, generate a new webhook URL and update it in VIS42.
Make sure the relevant notification types are enabled in Settings → Notifications. Some notifications are only triggered under specific conditions (e.g., overdue invoices require at least one overdue document).
Remove the webhook URL from Settings → Notifications → Slack and click Save. VIS42 stops sending to that channel immediately.
