Hi @danawoodman

Apologies, the README has drifted out of date with our latest documentation as there have been some breaking changes: https://github.com/bugsnag/bugsnag-js/blob/next/UPGRADING.md#6x-to-7x https://github.com/bugsnag/bugsnag-js/blob/next/UPGRADING.md#70-to-71

To integrate Bugsnag in a React app please follow our latest documentation here: https://docs.bugsnag.com/platforms/javascript/react/

I'll leave this issue open to address correcting the README to refer to the latest instructions.
