Help using Slack for notifications - troothdotcom - 2024-12-11

I am running jellyfin 10.10.3 through docker on the latest Ubuntu Server OS. I want to use Slack to get notification when a session starts or stops. I got a webhook from Slack but I have no idea what the template should look like for Slack. I just want to be able to get notifications from sessions starting and stopping from any user. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it.

Look at the slack template here.

https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-webhook/blob/master/Jellyfin.Plugin.Webhook/Templates/Slack.handlebars

And this old reddit post.

I've looked over both those links and have been using chatGPT to no avail. I was able to get notification from Slack but I only got what ever I inserted to the template and not specific information from Jellyfin.
