# WhaTap Integration
[WhaTap](https://whatap.io/en) is an application performance monitoring platform that detects performance issues in real time. By integrating WhaTap with ilert, every critical event from your services and applications is turned into a trackable alert with on-call schedules, automatic escalations, and rich notifications across channels. This setup helps your teams react faster, reduce noise through alert deduplication, and cut MTTR with runbooks, responders, and status page updates managed in one place.
## In ilert: Create a WhaTap alert source
1. Go to **Alert sources** -> **Alert sources** and click **Create new alert source**.
2. Search for **WhaTap** in the search field, click the WhaTap tile, and then **Next**.
3. Give your alert source a name, optionally assign teams, and click **Next**.
4. Select an **escalation policy** by creating a new one or assigning an existing one.
5. Select your [Alert grouping](https://docs.ilert.com/alerting/configure-alerting/alert-sources#alert-grouping) preference and click **Continue setup**. You may click **Do not group alerts** for now and change it later.
6. The next page shows additional settings, such as customer alert templates or notification priority. Click **Finish setup** for now.
7. On the final page, an API key and/or webhook URL will be generated. You will need it later.
## In WhaTap: Add a third-party plug-in
1. Navigate to the Project you want to receive alerts for.
2. On the sidebar, navigate to **Alert**.
3. Click **Notifications** and **Add** a new **3rd party plugin**.
4. Select Webhook JSON as type.
5. Enter a name and the [previously created alert source url](#in-ilert-create-a-site24x7-alert-source) in ilert into the **Webhook URL** field.
6. Click **Registration** to finish the setup.
## FAQ
**Will alerts in ilert be resolved automatically?**
Yes, as soon as the event status is set to \`off\` in WhaTap, the corresponding alert in ilert will be resolved.
