Google Chat Integration
Google Chat Integration Improvement Request
Current Issues
Thread Management Problem: Currently, all push notifications are grouped into a single thread, which creates usability issues, especially when pipeline notifications are also enabled. This differs from the more intuitive Slack/Discord integrations where each push creates a separate thread.
Navigation Challenges:
- Pipeline webhook messages create new threads and accumulate over time
- Commit notifications remain buried in the original thread
- Users must scroll extensively to locate commit-related discussions
- This creates a fragmented conversation experience
Limited Pipeline Insights: The current pipeline webhook messages provide minimal actionable information compared to the rich data available in Slack/Discord integrations.
Proposed Solution
Implement Slack/Discord-style Threading:
- Create individual threads for each commit and pipeline notification
- Maintain chronological order and easy navigation
Enhanced Pipeline Notifications:
- Provide comprehensive pipeline insights matching Slack/Discord feature parity
- Improve message formatting for better readability
