# How do I test an integration is working?

> Every integration has a Send Test button that fires a synthetic incident payload to the channel and confirms delivery in the UI.

## Quick answer

 Open the channel row in Settings → Integrations and click **Send Test**. Lemwatch fires a synthetic incident payload and displays delivery status inline. A green tick means the provider accepted the message.

## What the test verifies

- Auth token / webhook URL is valid

- Payload format matches the provider's schema

- The receiving app is reachable

- Signing secret (if any) is correct

## Where to find it in Lemwatch

 **Settings → Integrations → <channel> → Send Test**.

## FAQ

### The test succeeded but real alerts never arrive — why?

 Check alert rules: the channel may not be routed to the specific site or severity.

### Does the test count against my quota?

 No — synthetic tests are free.
