Description

Desired Changes

Currently when you create a change request, it sends a slack notification to everyone. We want to make it so that you can toggle weather or not to send the slack notification when creating a CR.

Potential solution
  • Add a toggle on the new CR page / modal and pass in a new boolean to the create CR endpoint
  • You will have to test and might need slack env variables. Ask Sean or Aaryan about how to test it if you get stuck
Acceptance Criteria
  • The create CR endpoint has been updated to pass in a new boolean that determines whether or not to send the slack notification
  • There is a toggle on the create CR page / modal

Research direction

Start at the create CR page or modal and trace the create CR endpoint, then identify where the existing Slack notification is triggered. Add the requested toggle and boolean behavior so creation can conditionally send the notification, and verify both paths against the acceptance criteria. Ask Sean or Aaryan about Slack environment variables if testing is blocked.
