Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

New Monitor Event on Pulsetic

Description:Emit new event when a monitor event occurs.

Version:0.0.1

Pulsetic Overview#

Pulsetic API lets you monitor your websites and servers, sending notifications when downtime occurs or performance issues arise. With Pipedream, you can leverage this API to create powerful, automated workflows that respond to Pulsetic events in real-time. For instance, you can automate incident management by connecting Pulsetic to ticketing systems, trigger alerts in communication channels, or log performance data for analysis. Pipedream's zero-management data stores also allow you to keep track of incident history without needing a separate database.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Pulsetic	`pulsetic`	`app`	This component uses the Pulsetic app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Monitor ID	`monitorId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

Pulsetic uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Pulsetic account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Pulsetic APIs in both code and no-code steps.
