Our team is closely monitoring the ongoing Slack outage and has observed a gradual restoration of service. Unfortunately, due to the extended downtime, automations sending Slack messages have exhausted their retry attempts and failed during this period. Automation owners have been notified via email about these failures. We recommend checking the run history and manually retrying the automations to resend your Slack messages. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
