### How to integrate OpManager with Squadcast
#### In Squadcast: Using ManageEngine OpManager as an Alert Source
1. Navigate to **Services** -> **Service Overview** -> select or search for your Service. Expand the accordion -> In the Alert Sources section, click **Add**.
2\. Select **ManageEngine OpManager.** Copy the displayed **Webhook URL** to [configure](#in-manageengine-opmanager-create-a-squadcast-webhook-setup-guide-for-manageengine-opmanager-running) it within **ManageEngine OpManager**. Finish by clicking **Add Alert Source** -> **Done.**
{% hint style="warning" %}
**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.
