What anomaly detection uses from each
Anomaly detection needs a steady daily series with a known normal range.
From WordPress that means recently modified pages. From Slack it means the channel where alerts are delivered.
Slack is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
WordPress on its own
WordPress knows what is published and when it changed. Without analytics beside it, it has no idea which pages bring in work.
Timing. WordPress stamps the publish and modified date on every post and page, which marks exactly when content changed.
Access. The WordPress REST API with an application password.
Slack on its own
Slack records what the team said about the business and when. Sales, traffic and spend live in other tools.
Timing. Slack timestamps every message, which makes it a record of when the team noticed and decided things.
Access. A Slack app installed to the channels you choose.
