Want to make sure your Slack Alerts are working and catching the right visitors? This quick guide walks you through how to test your Slack Alerts so you know you’re getting notified about the visits that matter most!

⚠ Before You Begin

• Make sure your Warmly script has been added to your website and is working properly.

🛠 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Open an incognito browser window

This helps avoid any issues caused by saved cookies or sessions.
We recommend using Google Chrome.

Step 2: Add your email to the end of the URL (using the w_email parameter)

This simulates a visitor and lets you test the alert. Just make sure you’re not using an email domain you’ve blocklisted or excluded through segments — those sessions will be automatically filtered out, and won’t trigger a Slack alert.

Example without UTM parameters:
yourcompany.com/pricing/[email protected]

Example with UTM parameters:

If you've added other UTM parameters, just add the w_email parameter at the end like this:
yourcompany.com/pricing/?utm_source=google&[email protected]

Step 3: Check if your session appears in Warm Calls

This confirms that Warmly has detected your visit and the script is working correctly. You’ll also see the company and person-level details Warmly was able to identify based on the email you used.

Step 4: Check if a Slack notification appears in channel

If everything is set up correctly, you should see a Slack notification come through.

🚨 What if you don’t see anything?

Try adjusting your Slack Alert settings:

• Add or adjust real-time conditions (like specific page paths or domains)

• Add or adjust segments to better target the right types of visitors.

Then, just re-test by following the steps above.
