## Grant scopes and install the Slack App
Now that we have a bot we need to give your new Slack App (and thus the bot) the right permissions on your Slack Workspace.
You'll need to give your new Slack App (Classic), and thus the bot, the right permissions on your Slack Workspace.
1. Via the menu on the left side of the page navigate to the `OAuth & Permissions` page and scroll down to the `Scopes` section.
1. Click "OAuth & Permissions" in the menu on the left, and scroll down to the "Scopes" section. Don't click the prominent "Update Scopes" button. Instead, click "Add an OAuth Scope".
2. Successively add the following permission scopes to your app:

2. Add the following permission scopes to your app:
* Modify your public channels (`channels:write`)
* Send messages as \<App name\> (`chat:write:bot`)
* Send messages as user (`chat:write:user`)
* Access user’s profile and workspace profile fields (`users.profile:read`)
Click on the `Save changes` button below the scopes once all scopes have been added.

Confirm that the authorizations you just added are OK:
4. Once the App has been installed the top of the `OAuth & Permissions` page will show two tokens: an `OAuth Access Token` starting with `xoxp-...` and a `Bot User OAuth Access Token` starting with `xoxb-...`. You will need to use the second in your Matterbridge configuration.
