Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As of now, you would have to create custom SDK metrics when you want to create some specific notifications.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great if there is a Slack menu in temporal web ui, allowing us to integrate with Slack and make custom messages (without having to implement on our own with SDK).
ex) Workflow "HelloWorldWorkflow" just failed with an error: connection time out

Describe alternatives you've considered
Or at least export flexible prometheus metrics with WorkflowID, WorkflowType...
