 Configurable authentication settings have not yet been built, but can easily be added. We’re using the [nodemailer](https://nodemailer.com/about/) package to power emails, so authentication features will be similar to any typical nodemailer setup.

+Create a `screwdriver-bot` [Slack bot user](https://api.slack.com/bot-users) in your Slack instance. Generate a Slack token for the bot and set the `token` field with it in your Slack notifications settings.

 # Settings
 Configurable settings for any additional build plugins added to Screwdriver.cd.
 
-## Email
-To enable emails to be sent as a result of build events, use the email setting.
-You can configure a list of one or more email addresses to contact. You can also configure when to send an email, e.g. when the build status is `SUCCESS` and/or `FAILURE`.
+The settings can be set in `shared`, to apply to all jobs, or in an individual job. A job-level setting will completely override the `shared` setting.
+
+If you don't configure the build status, the notification will default to sending notifications on `FAILURE` only.
 
-### Example
 ```
 shared:
-    template: example/mytemplate@stable
+    settings:
+        email: [test@email.com, test2@email.com]
+        slack: 'mychannel'
+
+jobs:
+    main:
+        template: example/mytemplate@stable
+```
 
+```
 jobs:
     main:
+        template: example/mytemplate@stable
+        settings:
+            email: [test@email.com, test2@email.com]
+            slack: 'mychannel'
+```
+
+## Email

+You can configure a list of one or more email addresses to contact. You can also configure when to send an email, e.g. when the build status is `SUCCESS` and/or `FAILURE`.

                 addresses: [test@email.com, test2@email.com]
                 statuses: [SUCCESS, FAILURE]
 ```
 
-The settings email configuration can be set in `shared`, to apply to all jobs, or in an individual job. A job `email` configuration will completely override the `shared` setting.

+## Slack
+To enable Slack notifications to be sent as a result of build events, invite the `screwdriver-bot` Slack bot to your channel(s) and use the Slack setting in your Screwdriver yaml.
+You can configure a list of one or more Slack channels to notify. You can also configure when to send a Slack notification, e.g. when the build status is `SUCCESS` and/or `FAILURE`.
+
+### Example
+
+This Slack setting will send Slack notifications to `mychannel` and `my-other-channel` on all build statuses:
+
+```
+        settings:
+            slack:
+                channels:
+                     - 'mychannel'
+                     - 'my-other-channel'
+                statuses:
+                     - SUCCESS
+                     - FAILURE
+                     - ABORTED
+                     - QUEUED
+                     - RUNNING
+```
