Learn how to integrate notifications from Open Collective in your own chat or website using Webhooks

{% hint style="danger" %}
With the implementation of the new [Dashboard interface](https://docs.opencollective.com/help/product/understanding-your-dashboard), we are currently in the process of updating our documentation and some pages may be out of date. Thank you for your patience. Please [contact](https://opencollective.com/contact) our support team if you need any assistance.

## Webhooks (generic, Slack, Discord)

Go to your settings, click on "Webhooks" then select the type and enter the URL for your webhook. The system will automatically detect Slack or [Discord's slack-compatible](https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/webhook#execute-slackcompatible-webhook) webhook URLs and will adapt the payloads for them.

See [this link](https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks#getting_started) to learn how to create a Slack webhook, or [this link](https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/228383668-Utiliser-les-Webhooks) to learn how to create a Discord webhook.

While creating the webhook, you'll be able (in some cases) to preview the payload by clicking on the Info icon next to the activity name:

## Other chat integrations (Mattermost, Gitter)

For Mattermost or Gitter, first set up a webhook as described above, and then [send it to us](https://opencollective.com/support) and we'll add the hook to our platform.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.opencollective.com/help/collectives/collective-settings/integrations.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
