  <Step>
    In your block with the data you want to send, click the More menu icon `( ... )` > `Configure` which should bring up a Configure sidebar on the right hand side like this:

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click `Add Automation`. Fill these in under **Schedule**:

    * `Period`: select how frequently you want to push data
    * `Action`: select Send to Slack
    * `Integration`: the nickname for the Slack integration you created above
    * `Channel`: the Slack channel you want the data to be pushed to
    * `Format`: If sending output from a query, you can send data in CSV, JSON, or Text Table formats. If sending a chart, the format will be in PNG
  </Step>

  <Step>
    If sending the results of a query, click `Create` to run and send your block. If sending a chart, set a schedule for the chart block to run as Definite currently only supports scheduled sends for visualizations.
  </Step>
</Steps>
