Configuration Options

Scheduling

  • • Choose delivery day (Monday through Friday)
  • • Set preferred delivery time
  • • Timezone automatically detected from team settings

Testing

  • • Send test summaries to verify webhook configuration

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Best Practices

  • • Use dedicated channels (e.g., #team-metrics) to avoid noise in general channels
  • • Test webhook configuration before enabling weekly summaries
