Description David Taylor 2021-01-14 19:45:44 UTC
When creating a Slack receiver, the adv. config. options only allow user to customize an icon and the username.  We should also add textareas for Title and Text which would allow user to fully customize the alert messages sent to Slack.

Example yaml:

 receivers:
  - name: Critical
    slack_configs:
      - channel: '#critical-alerts'
        icon_emoji: ':exclamation:'
        username: dtaylor113
        link_names: false
        title: >-
          {{ .CommonLabels.alertname }} {{ if eq .Status "firing" }}({{
          .Alerts.Firing | len }}{{ end }} {{ .Status }}) 
        text: >-
          {{ range .Alerts -}} *Alert:* {{ .Annotations.title }}{{ if
          .Labels.severity }} - `{{ .Labels.severity }}`{{ end }}

          *Message:* {{ .Annotations.message }}

          *Description:* {{ .Annotations.description }}

          *Details:*
            {{ range .Labels.SortedPairs }} • *{{ .Name }}:* `{{ .Value }}`
            {{ end }}
          {{ end }}
  - name: Warnings
    slack_configs:
      - channel: '#warning-alerts'
        icon_emoji: ':warning:'
        title: >-
          {{ .CommonLabels.alertname }} {{ if eq .Status "firing" }}({{
          .Alerts.Firing | len }}{{ end }} {{ .Status }}) 
        text: >-
          {{ range .Alerts -}} *Alert:* {{ .Annotations.title }}{{ if
          .Labels.severity }} - `{{ .Labels.severity }}`{{ end }}

          *Summary:* {{ .Annotations.message }}

          *Message:* {{ .Annotations.message }}

          *Description:* {{ .Annotations.description }}

          *Details:*
            {{ range .Labels.SortedPairs }} • *{{ .Name }}:* `{{ .Value }}`
            {{ end }}
          {{ end }}

Tested on ocp 4.8 cluster with payload 4.8.0-0.nightly-2021-02-21-102854.
Create slack alert receivers with default title/text and custom title/text, could get alert info successfully. Refer to attachment.
The bug is fixed.
