Default checks

Each new application receives default checks such as DNS, SSL, WAF, Header, and Uptime.

These checks provide baseline monitoring without extra setup.

Check types

Simple HTTP

Custom checks for critical endpoints, APIs, or login pages. Use them for precise expectations that default checks do not cover.

  • Configure method, path, headers, optional body, and search string rules.
  • Pass/fail is based on the configured expectations and response content.

DNS

Validates that hostnames resolve and reports record details.

  • Surfaces A/AAAA/other records, TTL, and provider hints.
  • Fails when no usable records are returned.

SSL

Inspects the certificate chain and expiry to ensure TLS hygiene.

  • Highlights expiry windows, chain completeness, and hostname matches.
  • Use this to catch expiring or misconfigured certificates early.

WAF

Tracks whether your WAF blocks expected payloads and whether behavior changes over time.

  • Uses a baseline request plus probes to detect blocking changes.
  • Pair with WAF profiling for deeper payload coverage.

Header

Scores the presence and quality of security headers.

  • Highlights missing or weak headers that reduce browser protections.
  • Some headers are legacy (for example Expect-CT) and may be informational only.

Uptime

Monitors availability and reports uptime trends over time.

  • Use shorter intervals for critical paths when faster detection is required.

Checks overview

Use the checks list to review all checks in the active project, including status, type, and last run time.

Open any check to inspect recent results and history.

Check detail

Each check has a detail view with the latest result, check state, and history buckets.

Use this view to validate fixes, review regressions, and document outcomes.

Create a custom check

Use custom Simple HTTP checks to cover critical endpoints and custom rules.

DNS, SSL, WAF, Header, and Uptime checks are created automatically for each application.

Scheduling and intervals

Checks run on configured intervals. Shorter intervals increase detection speed and credit usage.

Default checks start with standard intervals that you can adjust per check.

Tuning and false positives

  • Use Simple HTTP search strings to verify the exact content you expect.
  • If a WAF baseline changes after a release, recheck or profile again to confirm the new behavior.
  • Header checks may include legacy headers; treat those as informational where appropriate.

Manual rechecks are useful after deploying changes or resolving incidents.

Mute alerts

Mute suppresses alerts while keeping checks active. Provide a reason and duration.

Mute check
Mute a check to silence notifications during maintenance.
Muted list
Muted checks list for audit and review.

History and buckets

Historical views help identify flapping, regressions, and stability trends.

History fills after the next scheduled run and is grouped into buckets for quick scanning.
