Clear answers, before you start.

Websites, public HTTP API endpoints, expected page content and heartbeat signals from scheduled tasks. Website health adds SSL and DNS observations.

Scheduled checks start at five-minute intervals. The configured interval is not a guarantee of incident detection or email delivery time.

Yes. Public HTTP endpoints can be monitored for availability and response time. Authenticated request scripting is not part of this feature.

A 200 OK response does not tell you whether the right content is there. Keyword monitoring checks for the text that makes a page useful.

Connect the private heartbeat URL to your job and configure its expected interval. Keep that URL secret: possession of it allows a check-in to be sent for the monitor.

For HTTPS websites, certificate health includes expiry visibility. Review the remaining validity and warning state before a certificate problem affects visitors.

The public website-health signals include A, AAAA, MX and NS records.

Yes. Configure a Heartbeat monitor and have your cron job send a check-in to its private heartbeat URL. Missing check-ins can open an incident; resumed signals record recovery.

Yes. Use the monitor’s maintenance controls during planned work to avoid unnecessary alert noise.

A failed check enters the monitor’s confirmation flow before becoming confirmed downtime. Review the resulting incident instead of treating every isolated observation as a separate outage.

Configured email notifications report confirmed downtime and recovery. Failed send attempts are retried. Email is the supported notification channel; delivery time is not guaranteed.

Recovery is recorded in the incident history and can trigger a recovery email when notifications are enabled.

Move from a single incident to the wider picture. Review uptime, average response time, incidents, MTBF and MTTR over the period that matters.

Review when the incident began, how long it lasted and when the service recovered. Pair that timeline with response-time statistics to investigate the period around the failure.
