+        "event_subscriptions": {
+            "request_url": "https://<YOUR_HOST>/slack/events",
+            "bot_events": [
+                "message.channels",
+                "message.groups",
+                "message.im"

+### Save Bot Tokens
+You'll need to provide credentials to Slack from the cloud run backend. 
+Locate the tokens and set them as environment variables for later use. 
+
+- Click the Basic Information link for your Slack App 
+- Scroll down and locate the Signing Secret
+- Click show and copy the value
+- In your terminal set the env variable with the command below, pasting in your value after the equal sign
+  
+```sh
+export SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET=
+```
+
+- Click on OAuth & Permissions in the navigation for your app in Slack
+- Locate the OAuth Tokens for Your Workspace section 
+- Click Install to Workspace and complete the flow
+- Copy the Bot User OAuth Token
+- In your terminal set the env variable with the command below, pasting in your value after the equal sign
+  
+```sh
+export SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=
+```
+
+### Deploy Cloud Run Service
+
+From the slack-bot directory run the following command to deploy the backing service
+
+```sh
+gcloud run deploy devai-slackbot \
+    --source . \
+    --allow-unauthenticated \
+    --set-env-vars SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET=${SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET},SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=${SLACK_BOT_TOKEN}
+```
+
+- Copy the endpoint URL from the following command
+
+```sh
+echo "Slack Endpoint:"
+echo "$(gcloud run services describe devai-slackbot \
+    --format='value(status.url)' \
+    --platform managed)/slack/events"
+```
+
+### Finalize Bot configuration
+
+You'll need to update the backend URL for your app within the slack dashboard.
+
+- Return to your app in [https://api.slack.com/apps](https://api.slack.com/apps)
+- Click on Event SUbscriptions in the navigation.
+- Paste the endpoint generated from the previous step, into the Request URL field.  
+- Once the url has been verified Click Save at the bottom of the screen to persist your changes.
+
+Now go into your slack workspace and start interacting with DevAI Bot
