Steps to add Honeybadger integration to a service in Squadcast

Important:

When an alert source turns Active, it’ll show up under Configured Alert Sources. You can either generate a test alert from the integration or wait for a real-time alert to be generated by the Alert Source. An Alert Source is active if there is a recorded incident via that Alert Source for the Service.

1. Log in to your Honeybadger web console and go to the Settings tab of your project.
