Possible Slack recipients are retrieved from your Slack information:

Notifications will appear like the one below as Direct Messages from Slackbot
Slack private channel
If you need to send Sealights notifications to a Slack channel marked as private, you’ll need to add Sealights app specifically to the channel.
Your channel is private if there is a black locker icon next to its name.
For that purpose, select the “Add App” option either from the channel menu or from its Apps section in channel details.
