Appendix: Hubot Notifications Integration with CSA

CSA provides the ability to integrate with Slack and Hubot so that subscription-related messages can be sent from a Slack chat room. After you subscribe or cancel a subscription within the chat room, you will receive a Hubot notification within the chat room of the subscription's status.

As part of this integration, an example Coffee Script and environment file are shipped with CSA. You can use these files to quickly integrate CSA and Hubot. These files are shipped in the CSA_HOME/extras directory.

The following properties must be added and configured in the csa.properties file to enable CSA to send pre-defined messages through the Slack channel. Notifications are sent back to the chat room with the subscription ID when the subscription becomes active, is successful, or canceled.
