Maple in Slack: alerts and a bot you can ask

Install the Maple app in Slack to route alert rules to any channel and ask the bot about services, errors and traces in a thread.

An alert delivered into a Slack channel, followed by someone asking the Maple bot what changed.

An organization admin can now install Maple into your Slack workspace from Integrations → Slack. Linking the workspace gives you two things, and you can use either one on its own.

Alerts in your channels

Your Slack workspace becomes an alert destination. Add a destination, pick the workspace, and choose a channel from the picker. Maple posts through its own bot, so there is no incoming webhook to create. Each notification carries the rule, the value that triggered it, and a link to the alert in Maple.

Ask the bot

Invite the bot to a channel with /invite @Maple, then mention it with a question such as @Maple why is checkout slow?. It answers in a thread using your organization’s traces, logs, metrics and errors, with the same tools as Maple’s MCP server, and shows its progress while it works.

If Maple later needs new Slack permissions, reconnect from the Slack card to update the install in place. You no longer have to uninstall first.

Set it up with the Slack guide.

Add the SDK, point your OTLP exporter at Maple, and traces arrive.
