+# Setting up Dimension (optional)
+
+Dimension integrations manager installation is disabled by default. You can enable it in your configuration file (`inventory/matrix.<your-domain>/vars.yml`):
+
+```yaml
+matrix_dimension_enabled: true
+```
+Your Matrix also needs federation enabled for Dimension to work, so if you have disabled it by setting `matrix_synapse_federation_enabled` to `false`, please remove or comment this variable in your configuration file. Or set it to:
+
+```yaml
+matrix_synapse_federation_enabled: true
+```
+
+## Define admin users
+These users can modify the integrations this Dimension supports. Admin interface is accessible by opening Dimension in Riot and clicking the settings icon.  
+Add this to your configuration file (`inventory/matrix.<your-domain>/vars.yml`):
+
+```yaml
+matrix_dimension_admins: ['@user1:domain.com', '@user2:domain.com']
+```
+
+## Access token
+You are required to specify an access token for Dimension to work. 
+To get an access token, follow these steps:
+
+1. In a private browsing session (incognito window), open Riot.
+2. It's better to you use dedicated user for getting access token, so log in with this user's username and password.
+3. Set the display name and avatar, if required.
+4. In the settings page, scroll down to the bottom and click `Access Token: <click to reveal>`.
+5. Copy the highlighted text to your configuration.
+6. Close the private browsing session. **Do not log out**. Logging out will invalidate the token, making it not work.
+
+**Access tokens are sensitive information. Do not include them in any bug reports, messages, or logs. Do not share the access token with anyone.**
+
+Add access token to your configuration file (`inventory/matrix.<your-domain>/vars.yml`):
+
+```yaml
+matrix_dimension_access_token: "YOUR ACCESS TOKEN HERE"
+```
+
+For more information on how to acquire an access token, visit [https://t2bot.io/docs/access_tokens](https://t2bot.io/docs/access_tokens).
+
+## Additional features
+
+To use a more custom configuration, you can define a `matrix_dimension_configuration_extension_yaml` string variable and put your configuration in it.
+To learn more about how to do this, refer to the information about `matrix_dimension_configuration_extension_yaml` in the [default variables file](../roles/matrix-dimension/defaults/main.yml) of the Dimension component.
+
+You can find all configuration options on [GitHub page of Dimension project](https://github.com/turt2live/matrix-dimension/blob/master/config/default.yaml).
