{% endhint %}

## [Slack App](https://docs.currents.dev/resources/integrations/slack/slack-app) Integration (Recommended)

The Slack App integration provides a rich, feature-complete experience for test notifications:

* ✅ Organization-level installation with per-project configuration
* ✅ Multiple destinations (up to 10 channels per project)
* ✅ Run-level notifications with thread-based grouping
* ✅ Individual test failure notifications
* ✅ Advanced filtering by tags, branches, and commit messages
* ✅ Annotation-based mentions (users, groups, emails)
* ✅ UI-based mention rules configuration
* ✅ Improved security with OAuth 2.0

## [Slack Webhook](https://docs.currents.dev/resources/integrations/slack/slack-webhook) Integration (Legacy)

The webhook-based integration provides basic notification functionality:

* ✅ Simple setup with Incoming Webhooks
* ✅ Run start, finish, timeout, and cancel notifications
* ✅ Branch name filtering
* ✅ Tag-based filtering
* ❌ No individual test notifications
* ❌ No annotation-based mentions
* ❌ Limited to single channel per integration
