-The callback can be configured through an ``ansible.cfg`` file::
+Ansible must be configured to know about the location of the plugins in order
+for them to work.
+
+The location of the plugins will depend on many factors including your version
+of python, your Linux distribution or whether it's been installed from source,
+from packages or inside a virtual environment.
+
+ara-plugins provides a command to help you locate its plugins: ``python -m ara.plugins``.
+This command returns the path of the plugins directory so you don't need to search for it.
+
+The plugin directory location can also be retrieved in python::
+
+    import os
+    from ara.plugins import LOCATION as plugins
+    # Do something with the location
+    callback_plugins = os.path.join(plugins, "callback")
+    action_plugins = os.path.join(plugins, "action")
+
+Here's what your Ansible and ARA configuration might look like in an ``ansible.cfg`` file:
+
+    [defaults]
+    # Note: This is an example, use "python -m ara.plugins" to determine the real path
+    callback_plugins = /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ara/plugins/callback
+    action_plugins = /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ara/plugins/action
