Updown.io
updown.io is a HTTP(S)/TCP/ICMP monitoring service which checks periodically the URL you want and reports back any anomaly, be it downtime, bad response, degraded performance or even broken SSL certificate.
Integrate the Updown.io API with the Slack API
Setup the Updown.io API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the Slack API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate Updown.io and Slack remarkably fast. Free for developers.

Overview of Updown.io#
The Updown.io API allows you to interact programmatically with your website monitoring service. With this API, you can automate uptime checks, retrieve the status of your websites, manage checks, receive downtime alerts, and gather performance metrics. Integrating the Updown.io API with Pipedream enables you to create automated workflows that can respond to events, monitor services continuously, and connect with other apps to trigger actions based on the health and performance of your websites.
Connect Updown.io#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
updown_io: {
type: "app",
app: "updown_io",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://updown.io/api/nodes`,
params: {
"api-key": `${this.updown_io.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!
Connect Slack#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {

type: "app",
app: "slack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://slack.com/api/users.profile.get`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
