The Type selection influences the available example requests and the way the server response is evaluated.

How is a service monitored?

Each check of a service’s availability via a monitoring job is based on a request to the service and the subsequent verification of the response. The response is usually checked in the following order:

  1. The HTTP endpoint is accessible (connection can be established)

  2. Check of the HTTP status code (e.g., 200 OK)

  3. Optional: Check of the response time (e.g., max. 2 seconds)

  4. Check of the response content (e.g., for specific values or patterns, depending on the service type)

  5. Optional: Additional user-defined checks via expectations
