Release v20200506

[kevgliss]

This is the first release of may and it's a big one!

It seems with this update the documentation for configuring the plugins has disappeared, are there plans to update and add this back? I had just started to work with the plugins and integrations, and now I'm at a bit of a loss. Thanks!

[kevgliss]

This is what we currently have for plugin documentation. I don't believe it's changed much... were you looking for anything specific?

Happy, to fill in any gaps in the documentation as well.

[garmstrong67]

Thanks for the response.

These are the pages I'm referring to in particular: https://hawkins.gitbook.io/dispatch/administration-guide/incident/plugins

For example: https://hawkins.gitbook.io/dispatch/administration-guide/incident/plugins/configuring-slack

These used to have information regarding how to configure these plugins using the env variables

@garmstrong67 #1184 should fix the broken plugin links.
