Overview of the Uptime Dashboard

The Uptime Dashboard provides a comprehensive view of all your uptime checks, making it easy to quickly identify any issues and ensure your website is always running smoothly.

Step-by-Step Instructions to Create a New Uptime Test

1. Access the Dashboard:

• Start on your main Uptime Dashboard to get an overview of your existing uptime checks.

2. Create a New Test:

• Select a project where you want to set up the uptime monitoring.

• Click on “Start” to begin creating your new uptime test.

3. Fill in Uptime Details:

• Name Your Test: Assign a descriptive name to make it easy to identify each test later.

• Enter the URL: Input the specific URL or endpoint you want to monitor.

4. Configure Request Settings:

• Request Method: Choose the appropriate HTTP method for your endpoint, such as GET or POST.

• Schedule Interval: Set how frequently you want the test to run. The default interval is every 5 minutes, but you can adjust this to suit your needs.

5. Define Fault Conditions:

• Expected Response: Specify the expected HTTP status, like 200 for a successful response. This ensures you receive alerts if the status differs from what’s expected.

• Monitor Status Range: Optionally, select a group of HTTP statuses to monitor and track a range of potential responses.

6. Activate the Test:

• Click “Save” to activate your uptime monitoring.

• Your test is now active, and you’ll be notified if any issues arise with the monitored page or endpoint.

By following these steps, your uptime monitoring will keep a close eye on your website’s performance, alerting you to any problems promptly.
