The slack platform allows you to deliver notifications from Home Assistant to [Slack](https://slack.com/).
|
|
|
|
You need to obtain the [Slack API token](https://api.slack.com/web?sudo=1) to be able to send notifications.
|
|
|
|
To enable the slack notification in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
name: NOTIFIER_NAME
|
|
platform: slack
|
|
api_key: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
default_channel: '#general'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Setting the optional parameter `name` allows multiple notifiers to be created.
|
|
The default value is `notify`. The notifier will bind to the service
|
|
`notify.NOTIFIER_NAME`.
