Mattermost Overview#

Mattermost is an open-source platform for secure collaboration across the entire software development lifecycle. With the Mattermost API on Pipedream, you can automate common chat operations, integrate with DevOps tools for real-time alerts, orchestrate workflows based on chat events, and connect with other services to enhance team productivity. For instance, you could trigger actions on issue tracking platforms when discussing bugs or link project management tools to update task statuses directly from your Mattermost channels.
