The following fields can be set in the minion conf file:

slack_webhook.webhook (required, the webhook id. Just the part after: 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/')
slack_webhook.success_title (optional, short title for succeeded states. By default: '{id} | Succeeded')
slack_webhook.failure_title (optional, short title for failed states. By default: '{id} | Failed')

slack_webhook.show_tasks (optional, show identifiers for changed and failed tasks. By default: False)

Alternative configuration values can be used by prefacing the configuration. Any values not found in the alternative configuration will be pulled from the default location:

slack_webhook.webhook
slack_webhook.success_title
slack_webhook.failure_title
slack_webhook.author_icon
slack_webhook.show_tasks

Slack settings may also be configured as:

slack_webhook:
  webhook: T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
  success_title: '[{id}] | Success'
  failure_title: '[{id}] | Failure'

  show_tasks: true

alternative.slack_webhook:
  webhook: T00000000/C00000000/YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
  show_tasks: false
