+If you don't want to store your API token in plaintext you can use the secure features of weechat:
+
+```
+/secure passphrase this is a super secret password
+/secure set slack_token (YOUR_SLACK_TOKEN)
+/set plugins.var.python.slack_extension.slack_api_token ${sec.data.slack_token}
+```
+
 ##### Optional: If you would like to connect to multiple groups, use the above command with multiple tokens separated by commas. (NO SPACES)
