SLO Config

You can set both internal and external review SLOs, and ensure that the SLO is only applied to PRs of a certain size. The internal SLO applies to reviewers on the same team, and the external SLO applies to members of other teams.

Automation Rules

FlexReview allows teams to set up automations. If multiple teams are responsible for a single PR, all rules for the relevant teams will be triggered.

Trigger options:

• When a new reviewer is assigned

• When there is no review activity for X hours

Action options:

• Send a Slack DM to the reviewer

• Send a Slack message to the team channel

• Reassign the PR to another reviewer

You can configure the rule to cascade to all decendent teams.
