The Monitors section (sidebar) tracks whether your sites and services are up.
Monitor types
- HTTP(S) URL: checks a URL returns a healthy response; optionally require a keyword/regex on the page.
- Browser render: loads the page in a real browser and confirms an element is present (catches JS-rendered breakage a plain request misses).
- SSL cert expiry: warns before a certificate expires.
- TCP port: checks a host:port accepts connections.
- Ping: reachability by ICMP (falls back to TCP).
- Heartbeat / cron: your job pings a URL on a schedule; we alert if the ping stops.
What you get
- Current up/down/degraded state, latency, and a latency chart (14-day detail).
- Uptime % over 24h, 7d, 30d, and 90d.
- Incidents opened automatically on a confirmed outage and resolved on recovery, routed to your existing alert channels. An alert counts as sent only when at least one destination accepts it. If every destination fails, for example a webhook that answers with an error or a redirect, Formitor tries again for up to 15 minutes.
- A per-monitor Show on public status page toggle to display uptime to your clients.
Every paired site gets a homepage monitor automatically. Add more from + New monitor.
