Description

Description

Currently logs are generated when there is an issue. We are notified by the client when an error occurs to check the logs.

It would be best to automate the notification process so that when an issue occurs we are notified automatically.

Currently we have log files that are generated, however there are no automated ways to check these files. Heroku offers a task scheduler that we can setup to run once day that will check the log's for us. We can create a task to run daily that will check the log and notify us via Slack if there were any issues logged that day.

Research direction

Start by locating where the application's log files are generated and reviewing the deployment or task configuration related to the Heroku scheduler. Define how a daily check should identify errors and notify the team through Slack; done means the scheduled check runs reliably and sends notifications for that day's logged issues.
