Hi There,
it is no big deal for me, but I was trying to get the birthdays notifications send to a slack channel. But when I set a birthday of a my user to the next day for testing no notifaction is send to the testchannel. Birthday notifications are enabled and communication with slack is basically working.

Thanks for reporting this.

This is a little weird. It's working fine for me:

One requirement is that the bot has access to the channel. By default, it has access to no channels - this is because of security/privacy. The bot can't post a message if it has no access to the channel.

In the channel you want it to post a message to, just type @ and press enter. It will ask if you want to invite the bot.

Does the bot have access to the testchannel you created?
