     events: [post_store]
     token: SLACK_BOT_TOKEN
-    channel: "#network-changes"
+    channel: "CHANNEL_ID"
 ```
 
 The token parameter is a Slack API token that can be generated following [this tutorial](https://api.slack.com/tutorials/tracks/getting-a-token).  Until Slack stops supporting them, legacy tokens can also be used.
