Transfer parameters via methods GET and POST.

 

Necessary

method_name allowed value: monitoring_services_get

user_token allowed values: you can get it in your dashboard in your CleanTalk Control Panel.

 

Example:

https://api.cleantalk.org/?method_name=monitoring_services_get&user_token=USER_TOKEN

recordsFiltered number of records when filters are applied

draw arbitrary value, input parameters value

data monitor array:

  • monitor_id monitor ID
  • user_id user ID
  • URL website URL
  • created monitor creation time
  • check_datetime Date and time of the last website availability check
  • check_datetime Date and time of the last website availability check
  • checks_interval Interval in seconds between checks
  • down_datetime Date and time of the last website DOWN event
  • down_duration Duration in seconds of the last DOWN event
  • down_events_count_7d Number of DOWN events in the previous 7 days
  • down_events_losses_7d Number of seconds of inactivity (DOWN event) for the previous 7 days
  • email_notification_delay Delay in seconds before sending notification
  • email_notification_sent Date and time of the last notification
  • email_notification_status_sent Website status at the time of previous notification
  • http_full_response_time Time in seconds of the full website load: DNS query + site access + HTML content downloading
  • http_full_response_time_avg_1d Average response time in seconds last 24 hours ago
  • http_full_response_time_avg_7d Average response time in seconds last 7 days ago
  • http_full_response_time_progress Dynamics of the average URL response time for the previous 24 hours relative to 7 days ago
  • http_method Check method: HEAD — is the most optimal way of checking the website availability, it doesn't create any unwanted load, but doesn't show site errors either. GET — the website page will be fully loaded with this option. It can load the website if there is a large number of requests. It is recommended to be used only in cases when you need to find out what type of error the site gives.
  • status Current validation status. ACTIVE - validation is running, PAUSE - validation is stopped
  • updown_datetime Date and time of the current state
  • updown_duration Duration in seconds of the current state
  • updown_http_status Current state
