Honeycomb settings

Notification emails

Extra recipients per honeycomb beyond the hive owner.

When a new bichito arrives, by default we email the hive owner (you) — assuming you haven't muted that notification under Account → Notification preferences. Each honeycomb can also list extra recipients that get the same email.

Manage the list in /{hive}/honeycombs/{id}/settings.

Format

One email per line:

alerts@example.com
oncall@example.com
backend-team@example.com

No name, no role — just the address. Group aliases work (and are usually a better choice than listing individuals — turnover doesn't break the alert).

What gets sent

The same bug.created email the owner receives:

  • Subject: 🐝 New bichito + the title.
  • Body: severity, project, reporter (if any), the description, a deep link to the dashboard.

Extra recipients don't get other notifications (bug.commented, etc.) — only the initial creation. Per-event preferences are owner-only for now.

Verifying the address

Recipients don't have to verify. We trust the owner to add legitimate addresses; the cost of a typo is one bounced email.

Removing a recipient

Click the X on the chip, save. The next bichito won't email them.

Privacy implications

Anyone in this list sees every new bichito report. Don't add an email you can't trust with bug content (which, depending on your product, may include user data). For external collaborators, consider sending them a webhook to a Slack channel they have access to instead — see Webhooks.
