Can we get spending alerts in slack?
Anyone managing 5 or more Facebook ad accounts knows how easy it is to miss crucial performance changes. If you are not constantly monitoring your accounts, you may miss an opportunity to scale well-performing creatives or pause adsets that are overspending. Instead of manually checking in Ads Manager, set up Slack Alerts to get notified when your attention is required.

The solution is to automate alerts, so that you’re notified when something important happens and can direct your attention to solving it.
