The Maintenance mode allows you to manage and schedule maintenance periods for monitored URLs. During a maintenance window, no pings or HTTP requests are sent to the specified URLs, preventing downtime alerts during scheduled maintenance activities.

  • Duration: Specify how long the maintenance window should last (in seconds, minutes, or hours).

Once all fields are filled, click Create maintenance to save the new window.
