Ability to attach screenshot to Slack alert

Feature RequestInsights

We have been using Checkly for 2 years now to monitor our infrastructure. One thing that we really want that we want to be able to send screenshots of failed tests to Slack. Currently, it just notifies via Slack that a test fails. We won't know details until we log into the Checkly. If Checkly can attach a screenshot of the failed test to Slack would be great. So, we know immediately what happened. Especially when you use mobile devices.

    I’m going through Slack related request and I’m afraid we have to reject this. Due to the complexities of roles / security levels and identities in Slack we can not confidently add screenshots to external payloads while guaranteeing data privacy / not accidentally leaking information. You will still have to click a link in the Slack message to go to our app and authenticate to view the screenshots.
