Can I organize monitors by project?

Is there an API for automation?
Absolutely. PingZen provides a full REST API with OpenAPI documentation. You can create, update, and delete monitors programmatically.
How do status pages work?
Status pages are public, branded pages showing your services' uptime. You can use a custom domain (status.yourdomain.com), display real-time status, and allow customers to subscribe for updates.
What happens if I reach my monitor limit?
We'll notify you when approaching your limit. You can pause some monitors or contact us for increased capacity. We never stop monitoring without warning, ensuring your critical services stay protected.
