.github: Report dispatch failures on Slack#410
Merged
Conversation
The credentials for dispatching a request to the team-management repository in order to apply these settings to the organization periodically expire. When they expire, this workflow starts failing, but there is no corresponding notification. These credentials have a different lifecycle compared to the Slack notification, so probably it could be helpful to have a backup system here where this workflow posts to Slack when there's a failure. Then maintainers can monitor the same Slack channel for approval requests and infrastructure failures (including credential expiry). Add a new Slack app using the existing webhook URL to post a message when the dispatch fails. Signed-off-by: Joe Stringer <joe@cilium.io>
