Sync the Slack Usergroup with Oncall Schedule
Table of Content

Update users in the usergroup automatically with the oncall status and begin tagging with @sre-oncall. This can be integrated with your own custom rotation or the Pagerduty/OpsGenie schedule.

What are we looking for?

The "Sync Oncall Schedule with Slack Usergroup" workflow can face issues such as ensuring permission and access control, hitting Slack's API rate limits, and maintaining real-time data consistency between the oncall schedule and Slack usergroup. Additionally, effective error handling is necessary to manage potential synchronization issues, such as network failures or API changes.
