Alert Channels & Integrations

Website Monitoring Integrations

Get Downtime Alerts Where You Already Work

Site Detection connects to the tools your team already uses, so a website going down shows up in the right place. Send downtime alerts by email, SMS, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, and webhooks — with a REST API when you need a custom integration. Alerts fire when downtime is detected and confirmed with multiple checks, and you get a recovery notification when the site comes back.

Email built in • Chat + SMS + webhook alerts • Multiple channels per monitor

Build Your Own with the REST API

Need something beyond the built-in channels? Site Detection has a REST API you can use to read monitors and incidents and drive custom integrations — dashboards, ticketing, or internal tooling.

REST API

Programmatic access to your monitors and incident history. See the uptime monitoring API overview for what's possible.

API reference

Endpoints, authentication, and payloads are documented in the API docs so your developers can get started quickly.

How Channels Work

Every integration follows the same simple model, so adding a new channel is quick and predictable.

Per-channel On / Off

Each channel has its own switch. Turn a channel on or off at any time without deleting it or losing its settings.

Test buttons

Every channel has a test button. Send a sample alert to confirm messages arrive in the right place before a real outage.

Multiple channels per monitor

Assign several channels to one monitor. A single site can alert email, a chat channel, and a webhook all at once.

Alerts are sent when downtime is detected and confirmed with multiple checks — not on a single blip — and Site Detection also sends a recovery notification when the site comes back online.

Frequently Asked Questions

What integrations does Site Detection support?

Site Detection sends downtime and recovery alerts through email, SMS, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, and webhooks. Email is built in on every account, and each of the other channels can be added and configured per monitor. There is also a REST API for building your own custom integrations.

Can I get alerts in Slack, Teams, or Google Chat?

Yes. You can connect Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Chat by creating an incoming webhook in that tool, then adding the channel in Site Detection under Alerts and pasting the webhook URL. When downtime is detected, the alert is posted into the channel you chose, and you receive a recovery notification when the site comes back.

Can I send alerts to my own systems?

Yes. Add a webhook channel and Site Detection will POST a JSON payload to your endpoint when downtime is detected and again on recovery. You can also use the REST API to read monitors and incidents and build fully custom integrations.

Can I use more than one alert channel?

Yes. Each monitor can use multiple channels at once, so a single site can alert email, Slack, and a webhook together. Every channel has its own On/Off switch and a test button, so you can turn channels on or off and confirm delivery without waiting for a real outage.
