Getting started with monitoring your first site is pretty straightforward. Once you’re logged in to your account, you’ll be taken to your dashboard. From there, just click on “Add Site” and a form will appear.
In this form, you’ll need to enter your full URL (starting with https). For example: https://myawesomeapp.com
You’re not limited to just the base domain—you can monitor any specific endpoint. For instance, if you want to monitor a health check endpoint of your API, you can enter something like: https://api.myawesomeapp.com/healthcheck
And that’s it! After saving your website, you’ll be taken to its configuration page, where you can adjust all the monitoring settings for your site. While you’re at it, PingCat will automatically perform the first site check for uptime and SSL health.
