How to disable Slack integration

Disabling the Slack integration will disallow workflow notifications to be sent to your Slack channels. If this is desired, you can do so.

First, navigate to the Integrations panel. Clicking the X on the Slack integration will prompt you to confirm your action as it is destructive. Afterwards, your Slack integration will be disabled.

If you have no desire to re-enable your Slack integration, you can also delete your Slack application.
