Uptimus Documentation

Uptimus helps teams verify that websites, APIs and public services are reachable, fast enough and returning the right response.

Start here when you want to understand how a monitor behaves, why a check failed, or how to tune alerts without creating noise.

Uptime settingsFrequency, timeout, redirects and monitoring basics.Request settingsHTTP method, headers, payload and cache-safe requests.Response settingsStatus codes, text, headers and JSON body assertions.NotificationsControl when downtime and performance alerts are sent.

Good defaults​

For most production websites:

  • Check every 5 minutes or faster if your plan allows it.
  • Use GET unless the endpoint is specifically built for another method.
  • Accept 2* status codes for normal websites.
  • Add text or JSON assertions only when the response content matters.
  • Use a downtime delay for noisy websites and stricter alerts for critical APIs.
