## (Optional) Introduction to Homeserver Admin Contact and Support page
[MSC 1929](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/1929) specifies a way to add contact details of admins, as well as a link to a support page for users who are having issues with the service.
This MSC did not get accepted yet, but we think it might already be useful to Homeserver admins who wish to provide this information to end-users.
The two playbook variables that you could look for, if you're interested in being an early adopter, are: `matrix_homeserver_admin_contacts` and `matrix_homeserver_support_url`.
Example snippet for `vars.yml`:
```
# Homeserver admin contacts as per MSC 1929 https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/1929
matrix_homeserver_admin_contacts:
- matrix_id: @admin1:domain.tld
email_address: admin@domain.tld
role: admin
- matrix_id: @admin2:domain.tld
email_address: admin@domain.tld
role: admin
- email_address: security@domain.tld
role: security
matrix_homeserver_support_url: "https://example.domain.tld/support"
```
To learn how to set up `/.well-known/matrix/support` for the base domain, read the Installing section below.
