+# Slack
+
+This is what you will get:

+
+You need:
+
+1.  The **incoming webhook URL** as given by slack.com. You can use the same on all your Netdata servers (or you can have multiple if you like - your decision).
+2.  One or more channels to post the messages to.
+
+To get a webhook that works on multiple channels, you will need to login to your slack.com workspace and create an incoming webhook using the [Incoming Webhooks App](https://slack.com/apps/A0F7XDUAZ-incoming-webhooks).
+Do NOT use the instructions in <https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks#enable_webhooks>, as the particular webhooks work only for a single channel.
+
+Set the webhook and the recipients in `/etc/netdata/health_alarm_notify.conf` (to edit it on your system run `/etc/netdata/edit-config health_alarm_notify.conf`), like this:
+
+```
+SEND_SLACK="YES"
+
+SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL="https://hooks.slack.com/services/XXXXXXXX/XXXXXXXX/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
+
+# if a role's recipients are not configured, a notification will be send to:
+# - A slack channel (syntax: '#channel' or 'channel')  
+# - A slack user (syntax: '@user')
+# - The channel or user defined in slack for the webhook (syntax: '#')
+# empty = do not send a notification for unconfigured roles 
+DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_SLACK="alarms"
+```
+
+You can define multiple recipients like this: `# #alarms systems @myuser`. 
+This example will send the alarm to:
+
+-   The recipient defined in slack for the webhook (not known to Netdata)
+-   The channel 'alarms'
+-   The channel 'systems'
+-   The user @myuser
+
+You can give different recipients per **role** using these (at the same file):
+
+```
+role_recipients_slack[sysadmin]="systems"
+role_recipients_slack[dba]="databases systems"
+role_recipients_slack[webmaster]="marketing development"
+```
