Not limits — things that do not exist

So you do not go looking for the setting:

  • No probe location selection. Checks run from one location.
  • No status pages, maintenance windows, incident acknowledgement, tags or on-call scheduling. See the roadmap.
  • No SMS or phone alerts.
  • No public API for creating or managing monitors. The only public endpoint is the heartbeat ping.
