Bugsnag

Scorecards

Summary​

Bugsnag monitors application stability. You can use Bugsnag to drive insights into values such as:

  • Outstanding errors
  • Error frequency

Setup​

In order to connect Cortex to your Bugsnag instance, you’ll need to create a Bugsnag Auth Token, and add it under Settings → Bugsnag.

caution
If you’re using a self-hosted instance of Bugsnag, you’ll need to verify that your Cortex instance is able to reach the Bugsnag instance. See our IP Whitelist section for more.

Service Registration​

Discovery​

By default, Cortex will use the service identifier (e.g. my-service) as the "best guess" for the Bugsnag project key. For example, if your service identifier is my-service, then the corresponding project key in Bugsnag should also be my-service.

If your Bugsnag project keys don’t cleanly match the Cortex service identifier, you can override this in the Cortex Service Descriptor.

Service Descriptor​

If you need to override the automatic discovery, you can define the following block in your Cortex Service Descriptor.

x-cortex-bugsnag:
  project: my-project # projectKey in Bugsnag

The value for project should be the project's slug as defined in Bugsnag.
