The url of the homeserver (`https://homeserver:port`). +2. Credentials for connecting to the homeserver, in the form of a valid access token for your account (or for a + dedicated notification account). These tokens usually don't expire. +3. The room ids that you want to sent the notification to. + +To obtain the access token, you can use the following `curl` command: + +```bash +curl -XPOST -d '{"type":"m.login.password", "user":"example", "password":"wordpass"}' "https://homeserver:8448/_matrix/client/r0/login" +``` + +The room ids are unique identifiers and can be obtained from the room settings in a Matrix client (e.g. Riot). Their +format is `!uniqueid:homeserver`. + +Multiple room ids can be defined by separating with a space character. + +Detailed information about the Matrix client API is available at the [official +site](https://matrix.org/docs/guides/client-server.html). + +Your `health_alarm_notify.conf` should look like this: + +```conf +############################################################################### +# Matrix notifications +# + +# enable/disable Matrix notifications +SEND_MATRIX="YES" + +# The url of the Matrix homeserver +# e.g https://matrix.org:8448 +MATRIX_HOMESERVER="https://matrix.org:8448" + +# A access token from a valid Matrix account.
