Website & API Monitoring guide for UpDownMonitor.
Monitor any HTTP/HTTPS endpoint and get alerted the moment it breaks.
Set it up
- Go to Monitors → Create and choose Website.
- Enter the URL and pick the HTTP method (GET, POST, HEAD, etc.).
- Optionally add request headers and a body for API checks.
- Add assertions — expected status code and/or a keyword that must appear in the response.
- Set the check interval and, if available, multiple locations.
UpDownMonitor records response time on every check and opens an incident when an assertion fails.
