Slack Integration

Fraim can send security scan results and notifications directly to your team’s Slack channels using incoming webhooks. This integration allows your security team to stay informed about risks and vulnerabilities without having to check GitHub or other systems manually.

​
Setup Process

​
1. Create a Slack App

Follow the official Slack documentation to create an incoming webhook:
  1. Create a Slack app - Go to Slack’s app creation page and create a new app for your workspace
  2. Enable incoming webhooks - In your app settings, go to “Incoming Webhooks” and toggle “Activate Incoming Webhooks” to on
  3. Create an incoming webhook - Click “Add New Webhook to Workspace” and select the channel where you want Fraim to send notifications
For detailed step-by-step instructions, see the official Slack webhook documentation. After completing these steps, you’ll have a webhook URL that looks like: 
https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Keep your webhook URL secure! This URL contains a secret that allows posting to your Slack channel. Don’t share it publicly or commit it to version control. Slack actively searches for and revokes leaked webhook URLs.

Integration Methods

​
2. Add Webhook URL to GitHub Secrets

Store your Slack webhook URL securely in GitHub Actions secrets:
  1. Go to your repository Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions
  2. Click New repository secret
  3. Name: SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL
  4. Value: Your Slack webhook URL (e.g., https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX)
For detailed instructions on managing GitHub secrets, see the official GitHub documentation.

​
3. Use Webhook URL in Your Workflow

Add the Slack webhook URL to your GitHub Actions workflow:
name: Security Scan with Slack Notifications
on:
  pull_request:
    branches: [main]

jobs:
  security-scan:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      
      - name: Run Fraim Security Scan
        id: fraim-scan
        uses: fraim-dev/fraim-action@v0  # Use v0 for latest v0.x.x releases
        with:
          # Required: Workflow to run
          workflow: 'risk_flagger'
          
          # Required: Workflow-specific arguments as JSON object
          workflow_args: |
            {
              "approver": "security-team",
              "confidence": 7,
              "slack-webhook-url": "${{ secrets.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL }}"
            }
          
          # Required: LLM API key
          anthropic-api-key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
