Connect to Bugsnag

Updated 4 months ago by Michael Cretzman

The first step in using Bugsnag with Harness is to set up an Bugsnag Verification Provider in Harness.

A Harness Verification Provider is a connection to monitoring tools such as Bugsnag. Once Harness is connected, you can use Harness 24/7 Service Guard and Deployment Verification with your Bugsnag data and analysis.
