Team Setup
Get your team configured in a few minutes.
Creating a team
Teams are the central unit in Tenpace. Everything — channels, members, webhooks, reminders — belongs to a team. When you first sign up, a team is created for you automatically.
You can create additional teams (e.g., for separate business units or clients) from the team switcher in the navigation bar.
Inviting team members
Invite members from the Settings → Members page. Each invitation sends an email with a link to accept and join the team.
Members can have two roles:
| Role | Permissions |
|---|---|
| Member | View dashboards, receive notifications, link their accounts |
| Admin | Everything above, plus manage channels, webhooks, and team settings |
Linking GitHub accounts
For Slack @mentions and personalized digests to work, each team member needs to link their GitHub account. They do this once from their Profile page.
After linking:
- When they're requested as a reviewer, they get @mentioned in Slack.
- When they submit a review, the PR author is notified.
- They receive the daily digest (if enabled).
Members who haven't linked yet still appear in PR messages by their GitHub username, but without Slack @mentions.
Linking Slack accounts
Linking Slack happens separately from GitHub. Members go to their Profile → Connections page and click Connect Slack. This identifies their Slack user ID so Tenpace can DM them directly.
If your team uses multiple Slack workspaces, members can link a different Slack identity per workspace.
Configuring notification channels
Adding a channel
Go to Settings → Channels and add a Slack channel. During setup:
- Choose the Slack channel to post to.
- Select repositories to watch (or leave blank to watch all).
- Configure optional filters (GitHub labels, file paths).
- Set the reviewer mention policy.
Multiple channels
You can configure multiple channels for different purposes:
- #prs-frontend — only the
acme/frontendrepo - #prs-backend — only the
acme/backendrepo - #prs-all — all repos, no filters (catch-all)
Daily PR reminders
Enable daily personalized DMs in Settings → Reminders. Configure:
- Reminder time — When to send the daily digest (e.g., 9:00 AM)
- Timezone — Your team's timezone
- Stale threshold — How many hours before a PR is considered stale (default: 48h)
Team switcher
If you're a member of multiple teams, use the team switcher in the top navigation to switch context. All settings, channels, and webhooks are scoped to the active team.
