We’ve got a great new feature for your website monitors: timeout configuration! Now, you can fine-tune your monitors by setting a custom timeout – the maximum amount of time (in seconds) you’re willing to wait for a response before considering the service down. You can choose from predefined options of 5, 15, 30, or 60 seconds, allowing for flexibility based on your needs.
This feature gives you more control over how sensitive your website monitors are to slow networks. If your monitor frequently shows as down due to timeout errors, increasing this from the default 30 seconds to 60 seconds will help improve and reduce noise.
To configure this, head to the Advanced Settings and select the timeout that best fits your monitoring strategy. Keep your finger on the pulse of your service with this new, customizable option!
