# How to Set a Data Usage Limit Using Integrations in the Monogoto Hub?

The Monogoto Hub allows you to configure data usage alerts and controls using Integrations. These integrations can notify you when a SIM exceeds a defined data threshold and, in some cases, automatically restrict data usage.

### Accessing Integrations

1. In the Monogoto Hub, navigate to Integrations from the left-hand navigation panel.

### Network-Specific Limits (Optional)

* If a network is selected, data usage will be monitored per that specific network.
* When the defined limit is exceeded on that network, data will be blocked only for that network.

Important Notes

* Data usage calculations are based on CDRs (Call Detail Records).
* If a device maintains a long-lived data session and does not close it, the CDR may be delayed.
* In such cases, the device may temporarily exceed the configured data limit before the integration is triggered.
