# Integrating StatusPage
> Configure StatusPage integration to automatically open incidents when Checkly monitors fail
Checkly's webhooks can be used to automatically open incidents with [StatusPage](https://www.atlassian.com/software/statuspage). Assuming you already have your status page set up, the setup is as follows:
1. First of all, ensure you have an API key available for your status page. In case you don't, [create a new one](https://support.atlassian.com/statuspage/docs/create-and-manage-api-keys/). You will also need to make a note of your status page's id.
2. Next up, navigate to the Alert Settings tab on Checkly and add a new channel.
3. Select `Webhook`.
4. Configuring the webhook, enter `POST` as method and `https://api.statuspage.io/v1/pages//incidents` as URL. The body needs to be configured as shown in StatusPage's [official documentation](https://developer.statuspage.io/#operation/postPagesPageIdIncidents).
An example could be:
```json theme={null}
{
"incident": {
"name": "{{ALERT_TITLE}}",
"status": "investigating",
"impact_override": "critical",
"metadata": {},
"deliver_notifications": true,
"auto_tweet_at_beginning": false,
"auto_tweet_on_completion": false,
"auto_tweet_on_creation": false,
"auto_tweet_one_hour_before": false,
"backfill_date": "string",
"backfilled": false,
"body": "Something broke :(",
"components": {},
"component_ids": [],
"scheduled_auto_transition": false
}
}
```
Where the `name` field will be set to the title of the Checkly alert. See all [available alert variables](/integrations/alerts/webhooks#using-variables).
5. You will also need to provide your StatusPage API key in the `Authorization` header in the Headers tab, as well as select on which status the webhook should fire ("when a check fails", in this case), and which checks/groups should subscribe to the webhook. Subscribed checks and groups will trigger the webhook and open an incident.
You are done! When a subscribed check fails, an incident will be opened on StatusPage:
Note that currently, automatically resolving existing incidents on check recovery is not supported.
Congratulations! You have successfully integrated Checkly with StatusPage!
