# Cronitor Integration
[Cronitor](https://cronitor.io/)’s webhook integration with ilert allows you to automatically forward monitoring alerts from Cronitor into ilert, enabling centralized incident management, automated escalation policies, and reduced MTTR. By setting up this connection, you ensure that critical alerts from Cronitor are never missed and are handled according to your on-call schedule.
## In ilert: Create a Cronitor alert source
1. Go to **Alert sources** -> **Alert sources** and click **Create new alert source**.
2. Search for **Cronitor** in the search field, click the Cronitor tile, and then **Next**.
3. Give your alert source a name, optionally assign teams, and click **Next**.
