Monitor Settings ​

The Monitor Settings page lets you view and edit a monitor's configuration, trigger a manual check, and delete the monitor.

Accessing the Page ​

Click Details on a monitor card from the Dashboard, or navigate to /monitoring/monitor/{monitor_id}.

A sub-navigation bar below the header links to all monitor-related pages. The current page is omitted from the bar:

  • Monitor Details — this page
  • Daily Metrics — uptime history
  • Technical Logs — check log list
  • Incidents — incident history

The page header shows:

  • Monitor URL — the address being monitored
  • UUID — the monitor's unique identifier (useful for API calls)
  • Health badge — current health and logical state (see Alerts & Incidents)
  • Run Now button — triggers an immediate check (see below)

Active Incidents Panel ​

If the monitor has any open incidents, a panel is displayed below the navigation bar listing each one with its type, when it started, and a short root cause. Click the incident row to open the Incident Detail page.

The panel disappears automatically once all incidents are resolved.

Overview Chart ​

A chart below the header shows the history of recent check results. Each data point represents one check, color-coded by status.

Configuration Form ​

The form has the same fields as the New Monitor form. Changes are validated live and saved only when you click Save Changes.

Run Now ​

Clicking Run Now enqueues an immediate HTTP check outside the normal schedule. After triggering, the button shows a Wait 60s countdown — manual checks are rate-limited to one per minute per monitor.

The page updates automatically when the check completes: the health badge and overview chart refresh without a page reload.

SSL Ignore ​

The Ignore SSL Errors toggle in the configuration form instructs Holter to skip SSL certificate checks for this monitor. When enabled:

  • No SSL expiry incidents are opened.
  • Any existing open SSL expiry incident is resolved the next time Run Now is clicked or a scheduled check runs.
  • HTTP checks still run normally.

This is useful for monitors on internal services that intentionally use self-signed certificates.

Pausing and Resuming ​

To pause monitoring, set the State field to Paused and save. The health badge switches to a PAUSED indicator and the monitor stops being checked. Set it back to Active to resume.

Deleting a Monitor ​

Click Delete Monitor at the bottom of the form. A confirmation dialog appears. Click Yes, Delete Completely to permanently remove the monitor and all its associated logs, metrics, and incidents. This action cannot be undone.

Real-Time Updates ​

The page subscribes to live events. When an automatic check completes, the health badge, overview chart, and header update automatically.
