Managing channels
How to create, edit, deactivate, and delete Slack and Discord channels in Yeethook.
The Channels page lists every Slack and Discord channel connected to your Yeethook account. Each card shows the channel name, health status, delivery stats, connected app count, and last delivery time.
Creating a channel
Click Add channel to open the creation dialog. First pick the provider with the Slack or Discord tab. If you paste a webhook URL from the other provider, the dialog switches tabs automatically. Then fill in:
- Name — a label to identify the channel (e.g. "#app-events" or "#crashes").
- Webhook URL — the Slack incoming webhook URL or Discord channel webhook URL. See How do I create a Slack webhook? or How do I create a Discord webhook? for step-by-step guides.
- App connections (optional) — select which apps should send events to this channel. You can also connect apps later.
Click Create and Yeethook verifies the webhook URL is reachable.
Editing a channel
Open the actions menu on any channel card and click Edit. You can change the channel name and optionally update the webhook URL.
The current webhook URL is never displayed (it's encrypted at rest). If you need to change it, paste the new URL. Leave the field empty to keep the existing one.
Channel health
Each channel shows a health indicator:
- Healthy — the channel is active and has no consecutive delivery failures.
- Degraded — the channel has consecutive delivery failures. Check that the webhook still exists: for Slack, make sure the Slack app is still installed; for Discord, check Edit Channel > Integrations > Webhooks in Discord.
- Deactivated — Yeethook auto-deactivated the channel after repeated failures (e.g. the webhook URL was revoked, the Slack or Discord channel was deleted, the Discord webhook was deleted, or the Slack app was uninstalled). Events are no longer delivered to this channel.
The card also shows the number of consecutive failures and the total events delivered.
Reactivating a channel
If a channel was deactivated, open the actions menu and click Reactivate. You need to provide a fresh webhook URL from Slack or Discord (the old one is assumed to be invalid). After reactivating, Yeethook resumes delivering events to the channel.
Sending a test event
Open the actions menu and click Send test event. Yeethook sends a test message to the Slack or Discord channel. This is useful for verifying the webhook URL works before connecting apps.
Deleting a channel
Open the actions menu and click Delete. A confirmation dialog asks you to type DELETE to confirm. If apps are connected to the channel, the dialog lists them and warns that they will be disconnected.
Deleting a channel does not delete past events. Events that were delivered to this channel remain in the event log.
Plan limits
Each plan has a maximum number of channels. Slack and Discord channels count toward the same limit. If you've reached your limit, the Add channel button is disabled and shows your current count, limit, and plan name. Upgrade from the Billing page to add more.
