+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'
+```
+
+Configuration variables:
+
+- **name** (*Optional*): 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`.
+- **api_key** (*Required*): The slack API token to use for sending slack messages. You can get your slack API token here https://api.slack.com/web?sudo=1 
+- **default_channel** (*Required*): The default channel to post to if no channel is explicitly specified when sending the notification message.
+
+To use notifications, please see the [getting started with automation page]({{site_root}}/components/automation.html).
