Uptime Monitoring API

Your whole monitoring setup, available as requests. Create monitors, pull uptime stats, open incidents and route alerts from your own code, scripts and pipelines.

* API access is included in the Team and Organization plans

Made for Developers

  • Your monitoring stack, as REST

    Monitors, heartbeats, domains, status pages, incidents and maintenance windows: all manageable over plain HTTPS with JSON in and out.

  • Wire alerts into anything

    Attach notification channels to any monitor through the API: email, SMS, generic webhooks, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams and SIGNL4. Onboard a hundred services without clicking through a hundred forms.

  • Your data, your dashboards

    Pull snapshots, raw checks, online and offline events, downtime totals in seconds and uptime stats over 1, 7, 30 or 90 days. Feed internal dashboards, weekly reports or your data warehouse.

  • Two requests to your first report.

    Authenticate with a token in the Authorization header, then call any endpoint. Responses are JSON, errors are honest HTTP status codes, and the full schema ships as an OpenAPI file you can drop straight into Swagger Editor or your code generator.

    Read the API docs
  • bash
    # List the monitors on your account
    curl "https://api.pulsetic.com/api/public/monitors" \
      --header "Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY" \
      --header "Content-Type: application/json"
    
    # Uptime and response-time stats for the last 30 days
    curl "https://api.pulsetic.com/api/public/monitors/{id}/stats" \
      --header "Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY"

How Does the API Work?

No SDKs to install and no OAuth dance: a token and an HTTP client are all you need.

  1. Create your API key in your dashboard, under Settings > API.

  2. Send it in the Authorization header of every request.

  3. Build with any endpoint, or import the api.yaml spec into Swagger Editor to explore the full schema.

One API across your whole monitoring setup

    /monitors/{id}/downtime

  • Heartbeats and domains

    Track cron jobs and domain expirations from code.

    /heartbeats
    /heartbeats/{id}
    /domains
    /domains/{id}

  • Status pages and incidents

    Publish incidents and updates, schedule maintenance windows.

    /status-page

The same API powers the Pulsetic MCP server, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Windsurf can read your uptime data and manage monitors in plain English.

FAQ: Pulsetic API

  • How do I authenticate API requests?

    With an API key. Create one under Settings > API and pass it in the Authorization header; that is the whole handshake. No OAuth flows or signing schemes to implement.

  • Which plans include API access?

    The API is available on the Team and Organization plans. You can sign up free, explore the product and upgrade when you are ready to automate.

  • What can I build with the API?

    Automate the whole monitoring workflow: provision monitors when you deploy new services, publish incidents from your incident tooling, schedule maintenance windows from CI or pull uptime stats into internal dashboards and reports.

  • Is there an OpenAPI specification?

    Yes. The full schema ships as an api.yaml file that you can import into Swagger Editor to browse every endpoint, parameter and response, or feed to a client-code generator.

  • Can I see how much my integrations use the API?

    Yes. The API dashboard in your account shows requests for the current month, a daily average and a per-key breakdown, so you can spot which client or script generates the most traffic.

  • How does the API relate to the MCP server?

    The Pulsetic MCP server is built on top of this API. It exposes the same capabilities as a set of tools that AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Windsurf can call, authenticated with the same API keys.

  • Can I manage alert channels through the API?

    Yes. Attach email, SMS, webhook, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams and SIGNL4 channels to any monitor, list what is configured, and remove channels you no longer need.

  • Where is the full API documentation?

    In the help center: general information, token setup, the complete route reference and copy-paste curl examples for every common operation.
