# Samsara Integration
With the ilert Samsara integration, you can create alerts in ilert based on Samsara events.
If Samsara's fleet management system identifies a problem, such as a vehicle malfunction or a driver safety incident, ilert can promptly send alerts to the relevant team members, ensuring a quick response. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to connect Samsara and ilert.
## In ilert: Create a Samsara alert source
1. Go to **Alerting** → **Alert sources** and click **Create new alert source**.
2. Search for **Samsara**, click its tile, and click **Next**.
3. Give your alert source a name, optionally assign teams, and click **Next**.
4. Choose who gets notified: select **Use existing escalation policy** and pick a policy, or **Generate new escalation policy** to start with a basic one that notifies you first. Click **Next**.
Pick an existing escalation policy, or generate a basic one without leaving the wizard.
5. Select **Default grouping** and click **Continue setup**. It groups events by the alert key the integration sets; the other [grouping options](/alerting/configure-alerting/alert-sources.md#event-grouping) are easier to judge once events are arriving.
6. The next page shows more settings, such as notification priority and alert templates. Click **Finish setup** for now; you can change them later.
7. On the final page, ilert shows the integration key and URL for this alert source. You will need them later in this guide.
## In Samsara: Create a webhook
1. In the sidebar, click on the Alert bell icon.
2. On the next screen, click on **Create Alert**.
3. Now select a desired **Trigger**.
4. Now open the **Add Action** menu and choose **Send Webhook**.
5. A new tab will open. Now click on **Manage**.
6. Click on **Add Webhook**.
7. Enter a **Name**, the ilert alert source URL created in this [step](#in-ilert-create-a-samsara-alert-source) into the **Payload URL** field, and select some desired **Event Subscriptions**.
8. Click on **Create** to finish the webhook setup.
9. Optional: Click on the **Test** button to send a test alert to ilert.
