How to add your first monitor

Setting up your first monitor is easy and takes less than a minute. Follow these steps to start monitoring your infrastructure.

Step 1: Navigate to Websites

From your dashboard, click on Websites in the sidebar or the "Add Website" button on the main dashboard overview.

Step 2: Enter Website Details

Click the + Add Website button. You will need to provide:

• Name: A friendly name for your monitor (e.g., "Marketing Site").
• URL: The full URL you want to monitor (e.g., https://example.com).
• Check Interval: How often we should check your site (e.g., every 1 minute, 5 minutes).

Step 3: Configure Advanced Settings (Optional)

You can fine-tune your monitor with these settings:

• Monitoring locations: The number of locations we check from depends on your plan/package settings.
• Authentication: If your endpoint is protected, you can configure an Authorization header (for example Basic Auth or a Bearer token).
• Timeout: Set a custom timeout threshold.

Step 4: Save and Activate

Click Create Website. Your monitor is now active! We will immediately perform the first check.
