This guide walks you through connecting your Guardrails account to Clarion. The setup involves creating a webhook-based Response Channel in Guardrails and linking it to a Clarion monitor.
Estimated time: 5-10 minutes. You will need access to your Guardrails dashboard and Clarion workspace.
The Clarion integration wizard generates the webhook URL and signing secret for you. Keep the wizard open alongside your Guardrails dashboard.
