UptimeRobot offers advanced settings options for users who require detailed, customized control over the monitoring process.
Request Timeout: This setting allows you to control how long the monitor should wait for a response from your server before considering the request as timed out.
Slow Response Time Alert: With this setting on, you'll receive notifications when your server's response time exceeds your predefined threshold. Once the situation is rectified and response time is back within the acceptable range you've defined, UptimeRobot will notify you again, and the incident will be marked as 'resolved'.
Follow Redirections: This is useful when your server generates responses characterized by HTTP redirection codes (3xx). You can disable this setting to have UptimeRobot return these redirection codes instead of following them automatically.
Up HTTP Status Codes: This is a list of HTTP status codes that should be considered as 'UP.' Any response from the server carrying these codes will not generate a 'DOWN' incident in the monitoring system.
Authentication Type: Our tool allows you to choose between Basic and Digest authentication protocols depending on your server's setup. After selecting, simply fill in your credentials and password.
Request Body: Here, you specify the content that should be sent as part of an HTTP request.
These advanced settings offer a more granular control over your monitoring settings, ensuring that UptimeRobot can adapt to a range of specific requirements.
