Integration with Slack
Slack is a chat service for teams. It would be nice to see a Service Hook for it.
After almost 3 months of wait, we are finally officially in the Slack app store https://slack.com/apps/A02GX4ABHLP-freedcamp?tab=more_info

We would like to see this feature as well and would chip in $20

Also, to follow up my last comment, I would expect this to be directly integrated with freedcamp vs. going with zapier, because then you would have to make a new zapier rule for every single user and it could be cumbersome. Let me know!

Igor,
We really need this slack integration and would be happy to contribute financially to it. We were a very early user of freedcamp and this would definitely cause us to upgrade our plans.
Consider the following behavior would really help us out, and reduce your scope of development:
User gets a notification >> Send via slack bot (called freedcamp)
To be clear this is a very simple solution, that would help us unclutter our email tremendously. Our goal is to get all internal communication on slack, we currently only use email for external and our emails are getting very cluttered with FC notifications.
My proposal is just a setting for the user, to turn on freedcamp notifications IN SLACK INSTEAD of email.

Slack integration would be awesome. ActiveCollab had a really nice integration where changes, updates, new tasks, deadlines, etc would be posted to a Slack channel. We like Freedcamp's interface a lot more, but we sure miss that Slack integration!

I would be willing to put like $20 towards this if it'd help.

I think every Freedcamp user will help.
Also it would be great to have some sound or push up notification -

For us, Slack would be a far better way (than email notifications) of getting notified of Issue Tracker or Task updates. If change relates to user 'x' > post message direct to user x's Slack DM channel etc.

Slack integration would be super cool.

Suggestion for Freedcamp integration with Slack:
• When creating a project in freedcamp, it would be great if a channel could be created in slack to automatically populate the project discussion in Freedcamp.
• When the slack channel that is related to the Freedcamp project is updated, the discussion channel on Freedcamp should also be synched.
• Also when the discussion channel is updated, the slack channel that is related to the Freedcamp project should also be updated. -

Look at the awesome Slack/Trello integration if you want to know how it should be integrated.

I agree Slack would be a good additional integration, but I also agree with Igor that replaicating everything is unrealistic and pretty pointless.
If I were going to suggest how this could work as a useful addition I would suggest this:
1. New project created, sends a Slack update to a channel created in Slack for general Freedcamp updates.
2. Create new channel in slack from new project.
3. Get updates in Slack when new tasks and comments created with some reference in the slack update such as FC [ProjectName] [ProjectTask]. And a link to to view the item in FC.
4. if possible, replying to the Slack comment from FC within Slack would be good, but only for simple text updates. if we want to add files or new tasks etc, this should be done in FC as it would be reinventing the wheel otherwise -

It would be great if a integration could be made.

Allowing FC projects to communicate with Slack channels would be amazing. There would need to be some way to assign a project to a Slack channel.
Example integration ideas that would be helpful
- when a to-do task is updated or changed in FC project, an alert is available for slack to pull in
- when Milestone is near, a reminder notification can be sent in Slack.
- when a new unassigned to-do is created in a FC Project, a message is sent to Slack channel
- when a new assigned to do is created in a FC Project, a message is sent to the Slack User -

I agree. I would look at how Trello is integrated with Slack and replicate.

Are there web hooks in freedcamp? If so basic slack notifications would be possible.
