# Slack Integration Hi, and welcome to another evalink tutorial! In this tutorial, we will add and set up the **Slack Integration** into your evalink talos account. The `Slack integration` for evalink talos will convert alarms and events into Slack channel notifications automatically. To configure it in evalink talos, you need to have permissions to create a Slack App on your Slack workspace. * On the left menu, go to `Company`, then click on the tab `Integrations`. * Search for **Slack** and add the integration to your evalink talos account by clicking on `Add Integration`. * In the window that will pop up now, you will be asked to enter a “Default Slack WebHook”. You can find this webhook in your app’s Features page, which will appear upon the app’s creation. * Copy the Webhook-URL and paste it into “Default Slack WebHook” in evalink talos. * evalink talos will generally just send critical notifications via this channel. If you check the box “Send all alarms”, it will send all alarms as well. * Clicking on the `+` will allow you to add additional Slack Endpoints, which we can disregard for this tutorial. * Click `Submit`to finish the configuration. To be able to actually receive Slack notifications for a site, we still need to use the Slack integration on a workflow created for this site. * Navigate to the Menu `Sites`, pick the site to configure and click on the tab `Workflows`. In the workflow editor, you can now see the automated action `Send a Slack Message`. By doing that, you can send a slack message into the Slack channel of your choice, based on your Slack app’s configuration. * For this tutorial, we will send the message: “Alarm. This is a test message to Slack” for testing purposes. And, that’s it! Now, you have the ability to send Slack messages to the connected Slack channel of your choice as a step within a workflow. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
