Changelog

We have added a new WhatsApp integration to Uptime.com, allowing you to receive alert and recovery notifications directly via WhatsApp.

Once configured, Uptime.com will send a WhatsApp message when an alert is raised and a recovery message when the check recovers.

To set it up, navigate to Notification > Integrations, search for WhatsApp, and click Add. From there, enter a name, assign a contact, and add the recipient’s phone number.

For more information, please see our documentation on Configuring Whatsapp.

We have added the ability to use a Custom User Agent field to the Authentication & Settings step in Transaction Checks, allowing you to define a custom User Agent string for your check.

To ensure correct legitimate usage, to enable this feature you must contact us at support@uptime.com. Once enabled, navigate to your Transaction Check, open the Check Steps tab, click Add Step > Authentication & Settings, and expand the step to set your custom User Agent.

If you have any questions, contact us at support@uptime.com.
