Checks to perform
Select the type of checks you want to configure:
Website monitoring
Uses HTTP(s) protocols to monitor your website or API endpoint.
Options: HTTPS or HTTP.
Ping monitoring
Confirms the server's availability using ping responses.
Docker monitoring: Monitors whether a Docker container is running.
Ensure your Docker daemon is exposed.
Docker IDs must be the full 64 char Docker ID. You can run

to get the full container ID.
Port monitoring
Checks whether your port is open or not.
General settings
URL to Monitor: Provide the complete URL of the website or service you want to monitor.
Display Name (Optional): Assign a custom name for easier identification in your dashboard.
Incident notifications
Stay informed when incidents occur:
Email Notifications: Receive alerts via email.
Notification integration: If you want to get notified on Discord, Slack, Telegram or via Webhooks, you can use this section. Click on the button and you'll see a list of notification channels.
Ignore TLS/SSL error
If there is a TLS/SSL error when connecting to a service, you can tell Checkmate to continue checking the service's uptime.
Advanced settings
Check frequency: Set the frequency of checks. The default is 1 minute, but you can adjust this based on your requirements.
After completing all configurations, click the Create monitor button at the bottom-right to activate your monitor.
