# Notifications Bridge

The notifications bridge forwards community events to outside services like **Slack** and **Microsoft Teams** using webhooks. Manage it at **Admin → Bridge** (`/admin/bridge`). This is an admin feature.

## Set up a target

1. Click **New target**.
2. Enter a name, paste the webhook URL from Slack or Teams, and choose which events to forward.
3. Click **Test** to send a sample event and confirm it arrives.
4. Save and enable the target.

## Events you can forward

- New thread created
- New reply posted
- A member is mentioned
- A post is awarded
- A moderation action is taken
- A member joins or leaves
- An escalation is created

## Delivery format

Events are delivered as JSON POST requests carrying the event type, timestamp, actor, and an event-specific payload. The format works with Slack incoming webhooks and Microsoft Teams connectors.

## Manage targets

- **Edit** — change the webhook URL or the events a target forwards.
- **Test** — send a sample event to confirm delivery.
- **Delete** — remove a target.
