Copy `config.yaml-sample` to `config.yaml` and edit for your setup. Likewise copy `appservice.yaml-sample` to `appservice.yaml` and edit to match the tokens, prefix, and port listed in `config.yaml`. This is the configuration that synapse will need to reference so that it can connect the bridge. Make sure you modify your [syanpse configuration] accordingly.
## Tweaks
There exists a bug in synapse which prevents the bridge user from accepting DM invites from users on other homeservers. To work around the issue you can create a profile for the bot user.[^1]
```sh
curl --data '{"type": "m.login.application_service", "username": "your_sender_localpart"}' 'http://yourhomeserver/_matrix/client/r0/register?access_token=your_as_token'
```
