Include small response body in notifications directly
I typically implement a health check/status endpoint in my services, so it will return both a JSON response, and a valid HTTP status code (eg. 200 on success, 500 on error, for example).
Thing is, when I use this in combination with updown.io, I only get notifications that specify the reason based on the error code, eg. "Internal Server Error".
What I'd really want here is to have at least the Slack notifications include the entire response, or even just part of the response.
I'd even be fine if it only worked like this when you use the "contains" functionality,…
9 votesHello and thank you for the suggestion. Doing special treatment for monitoring endpoints (versus website pages) is too specific and error-prone so we’re not gonna do that.
One thing which might be done to help in this case is display the response body when using the contains feature but this only makes sense if it’s small and simple (no html). How does yours look?

Show QUALYS SSL Labs Grade
Show somewhere on the status page, the SSL Labs grade for the monitored host. It can be get trough the API, like https://api.ssllabs.com/api/v3/analyze?host=updown.io (it could be tested once a day for each host)
6 votesYes, I want to do it for a long time but the Qualys API is not free to use for commercial projects so I need to discuss with them (this is currently in discussion).

Provide pagerduty integration
Provide integration for https://www.pagerduty.com/
14 votesHi all, there’s now an option for that which is through Zapier (we just added native Zapier integration): https://updown.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/1911991
Using this you can connect PagerDuty and receive alerts from updown.io. I’m keeping the suggestion “under review” because we might provide a native integration later.

TCP certificate expiry checks
Updown is great for HTTPS checks - loving the cert expiry warnings, and I can also check my mailserver with the TCP checks.
I would like to also check the cert validity on a non-HTTPS ports. (i.e. IMAPS or SMTPS. I'm not asking for any understanding of the protocol for non HTTP(S) ports, just connect and do cert checks.)

Add Chinese monitor location
The response time to Chinese server (located on Alibaba or Baidu for example) is very slow for non-Chinese clients.
14 votesWhile I understand the need, being in China is a lot of work (mainly support and maintenance) as the network conditions are erratic and with out current double check policy would not actually notify if your website is unreachable in China (unless we have two servers here and become a regional monitoring service but that’s not the objective and we can’t just do that in every country). I’ll keep the idea open to measure interest. Also if some of you have recommendations for a dependable and affordable hosting provider in China I’m interested.
