Abstract INTEGRAL detected a X-ray burst on April 16, 2012 at a position consistent with the position of an unidentified source 1RXS J180408.9-342058, and tentatively it was assumed that the burst is associated with the same source (Atel # 4050). To further monitor the X-ray activity of the source, we performed a follow-up observation using the Swift satellite.

1RXS J180408.9-342058 was observed using Swift in photon counting mode for an exposure time of 1.3 ks, on April 30, 2012 at UT 19:12.
