Heartbeat monitors and per-monitor silence windows
Aug 27, 2026 By The EvoHub team Updated Oct 9, 2026
# Heartbeat monitors
A new Heartbeat monitor type for cron jobs, backups and other scheduled work. Your job pings a unique URL, and EvoHub alerts when a ping is overdue.
Set the expected interval and a grace period, from minutes up to 30 days, so daily and weekly jobs can be watched too.
The monitor page shows the ping URL, a ready-to-paste curl command and the time of the last ping.
An overdue heartbeat goes through the same notifications and On-Call escalation as any other monitor.
# Silence windows
Individual monitors can be silenced for a window of time, for example by a maintenance window in On-Call, without muting the rest of your organization.
The monitor list shows which monitors are silenced.
