Automated Uptime Monitoring and Alerting
detail.loadingPreview
This workflow automates the monitoring of your critical services and triggers immediate alerts when status changes occur. It ensures you're always informed of system availability, reducing downtime and response times.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow is designed to proactively monitor the uptime of your important systems. It periodically checks the status of specified services, identifies any transitions from up to down or vice-versa, and logs these events. Upon detecting a status change, it sends out immediate notifications via Slack and email to designated channels, ensuring that your team is instantly aware of any potential issues. The system leverages Google Sheets for both retrieving site information and logging historical uptime data, providing a centralized and organized approach to service availability management.

- Scheduled Monitoring: Automatically checks service status at regular intervals (every 6 hours).
- Status Change Detection: Accurately identifies transitions from UP to DOWN and DOWN to UP.
- Multi-Channel Alerts: Sends immediate notifications via Slack and email for prompt issue resolution.
