per changes with slack, they’re now using “static” web hook urls that describe the team & service with IDs that don’t change if the team or service name change. their recommendation is to use the raw webhook_url instead of building it out of components to allow more flexibility this should also prevent issues cropping up with mistakes in how the urls are parsed

On GitLab
After Slack is ready we need to setup GitLab. Here are the steps to achieve this.
-
Sign in to GitLab
-
Pick the repository you want.
-
Navigate to Settings -> Services -> Slack
-
Fill in your Slack details
- Mark it as active
- Paste in the webhook url you got from Slack
Have fun :)
P.S. You can set "branch,pushed,Compare changes" as highlight words on your Slack profile settings, so that you can be aware of new commits when somebody pushes them.
