NodePing Integration Guide

NodePing provides uptime monitoring for websites and servers. NodePing can monitor a variety of protocols including HTTP/S, SSH, FTP, PING, FTP, SMTP and much more.

What can Zenduty do for NodePing users?

With NodePing's Integration, Zenduty sends new monitored NodePing alerts to the right team and notifies them based on on-call schedules via email, text messages(SMS), phone calls(Voice), Slack, Microsoft Teams and iOS & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed. Zenduty provides your NOC, SRE and application engineers with detailed context around the monitored NodePing alert along with playbooks and a complete incident command framework to triage, remediate and resolve incidents with speed.

Whenever NodePing detects that a protocol is down, it triggers an alert in Zenduty. Zenduty will then create an incident. When that protocol goes back up, Zenduty will auto-resolve the incident.

You can also use Alert Rules to custom route specific NodePing alerts to specific users, teams or escalation policies, write suppression rules, auto add notes, responders and incident tasks.
