Issues

Issues are just GitHub Issues.​
Creating issues
There are multiple ways to create an issue using Fabric within Slack.
With a slash command
To create an issue, type in the /issue command in the compose message box of any Slack channel or DM.
You can enter a title, like /issue Allow users to change their email.
From an existing message
To create an issue from a message, hover over the message and select the three-dot button.
When the menu expands, click Create an issue.
Click "Create an issue...". You may have to click "More message shortcuts" the first time.
Using the 🆕 emoji reaction
To create issues even faster, you can react on a message with the 🆕 emoji!
This is great for quickly converting multiple messages at once into issues.
Once you create the issue, Fabric will link to your new issue in the thread, making it really easy to see where your issue went.
Pro Tip: Go to slack.com/customize/emoji and add the 🆕 emoji as a one-click reaction for your team, to make issue creation even faster.
From the dashboard
To get to your Fabric Dashboard, click Fabric under Apps in your Slack sidebar.
If you don't see Fabric there,  search for Fabric in your Slack search bar, and then click on the Home tab.
Find Fabric in the Slack sidebar or search for it in the Fabric search bar.

Type "/find-issue <keyword>".
A modal will open. You can view details, or apply more filters. Click "Share" to share.
Fabric will ask you which channel you want to share to.
Fabric will send your issue to the channel. Click the "..." to edit your issue.
Closing issues
Closing your issues is a great feeling. Here are some ways to do it:
On Pull Request merge
​GitHub's default behaviour is that if you link a Pull Request to an issue with a keyword like closes or fixes, like closes #123, it'll automatically close the issue when the PR is merged.
The keywords are:
close
closes
closed
fix
fixes
fixed
resolve
resolves
resolved
We recommend linking your PRs to your issues this way.
A good rule of thumb: every PR should reference an issue.
From the issue message
To close from the issue message, click Edit✏️, and then click Close issue. To reopen, click the button again.
From the Issue Room
We have a handy Issue Room Command for closing issues:
Simply type close!
Typing "close" will close the issue and archive the Issue Room.
Auto-archiving the Issue Room
Closing your issue will auto-archive any connected Issue Room, keeping your Slack sidebar neat and organized.
If you need to reopen an Issue Room, right click on the channel, choose Channel details, and click Unarchive.
