The `synology_chat` notification platform allows you to deliver notifications to your [Synology Chat](https://www.synology.com/en-us/dsm/feature/chat) install as a Synology Chat bot.
To configure a Synology Chat bot, first you must create a [Synology Chat Integration Incoming Webhook](https://www.synology.com/en-us/knowledgebase/DSM/tutorial/Collaboration/How_to_configure_webhooks_and_slash_commands_in_Chat_Integration#t2.1). After this is complete, you will have a Webhook URL. This is what will be required in the Home Assistant configuration.
To enable the Synology Chat notification in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
notify:
- platform: synology_chat
name: hass_synchat
resource: https://example.your.synology.com/webapi/entry.cgi?api=SYNO.Chat.External&method=incoming&version=1&token=ABCDEFG
```
Configuration variables:
- **name** (*Required*): Setting the parameter `name` allows multiple notifiers to be created. The notifier will bind to the service `notify.NOTIFIER_NAME`.
- **resource** (*Required*): The incoming webhook URL.
To use notifications, please see the [getting started with automation page](/getting-started/automation/).
