Website & API Health Monitoring System with HTTP Status Validation

Website & API Health Monitoring System with HTTP Status Validation

How it works Performs HTTP health checks on websites and APIs with automatic health status validation Checks HTTP status codes and analyzes JSON responses for common health indicators Returns detailed status information including response times and health status Implements conditional logic to handle different response scenarios Perfect for monitoring dashboards, alerts, and automated health checks

Set up steps Deploy the workflow and activate it Get the webhook URL from the trigger node Configure your monitoring system to call the webhook endpoint Send POST requests with target URLs for health monitoring Receive JSON responses with health status, HTTP codes, and timestamps

Usage Send POST requests to the webhook URL with target URL parameter Optionally configure timeout and status expectations in request body Receive JSON responses with health status, HTTP codes, and timestamps
Perfect for monitoring dashboards, alerts, and automated health checks Use with external monitoring tools like Nagios, Zabbix, or custom dashboards Set up scheduled monitoring calls for continuous health validation Example request: Send POST with {"url": "https://your-site.com", "timeoutMs": 5000} Success response returns: {"ok": true, "statusCode": 200, "healthStatus": "ok"} Failure response returns: {"ok": false, "error": "Health check failed", "statusCode": 503}

Benefits Proactive monitoring to identify issues before they impact users Detailed diagnostics with comprehensive health data for troubleshooting Integration ready - works with existing monitoring and alerting systems Customizable timeout settings, expected status codes, and health indicators Scalable solution to monitor multiple services with single workflow endpoint

Use Cases E-commerce platforms: Monitor payment APIs, inventory systems, user authentication Microservices: Health validation for distributed service architectures API gateways: Endpoint monitoring with response time validation Database connections: Track connectivity and performance metrics Third-party integrations: Monitor external API dependencies and SLA compliance
