In this post, I will show you, how to monitor your Website in just 2 simple steps?
Step 1: Create a component.
Think of components like folders that contain other Fyipe resources and one of the resources it has is called “Monitors”.
They can help you to monitor security measures and manage logs of any of your resources.
They can also help you get SMS Alerts, Call Alerts, or Email Alerts during downtime.
So we click on “Create Component” and provide the name of our component, let’s say, “Home Page” and click on “Add Component”.
That’s it…we have successfully created a new component.
Step 2: Add a Website monitor to your component.
A website monitor will basically test your Website for availability, performance, and function.
It will also notify you when it goes down or performs poorly.
So we provide the name of our website, let’s say: “Google” and click on “Website”.
Now, we need to provide the URL of our website, that will be “google.com”
You can click on “Advance Options” to provide any configuration settings for your new monitor.
Here you can set Monitor Criteria for Online, Degraded, and Down.
These criteria state when your monitor is Up, Degraded, or Down. For example, the monitor is Up when Status Code is greater than 200 but less than 300 and the response time is less than 5000 milliseconds.
If it does not match this criterion, then the monitor will be considered down and you will be alerted.
You can set the same when the monitor should be considered degraded and down.
Let’s click on “Add Monitor”.
Your Website Monitor is now successfully created and added to your component.
This is how it looks like when Fyipe is monitoring your Website.
Let me simulate what happens when your website is down.
I’m creating this incident manually, but Fyipe will automatically create one for you.
You will be alerted when an incident is created.
You can acknowledge an incident when someone is actively working to resolve it.
And you can resolve it, when you finish working on it.
So that’s how easily you monitor your website on Fyipe in just 2 simple steps.
