Probot feature for failure alert notification similar to dependabot
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I have an issue when [...]
I worked on a Probot app in which I scan users' repositories and raise PRs after processing with the Probot app functionality. So, I have a requirement where I want to alert Probot app users about the status of the app jobs, including the reason for the bot's failure to create PR. However, at this time, I couldn't find a Probot-integrated method of notifying users of the failure of PR creation.
Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen. Add any considered drawbacks.
I'm seeking for something comparable to Dependabot's notification system, where alerts are fired by the Dependabot via GH in the event of a failure. I understand Dependabot is unique and natively integrated with GH. So, I'm looking for anything comparable.
Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.
I am exploring other ways for notifying the users of the reason for the failure of PR creation either via
Email notification, or
Web UI notification
However, both ways have pros and cons. Email notifications are easier to create, but most of the time they are deemed spam, and I don't want users to be bombarded with 'n' number of emails, which will degrade the app experience for the user. Another option is UI notification, where I can create a UI to share failure alerts for PR creation failures.
So, before using the alternate route. I'm wondering whether there's anything comparable to Dependabot alerts that I'm missing, and if so, please let me know how to get it. And, if not, I wanted to understand from the experts what are the likely alternate solutions that I might investigate for failure notification to Probot app users.
Teachability, Documentation, Adoption, Migration Strategy
If you can, explain how users will be able to use this and possibly write out a version the docs.
Maybe a screenshot or design?
