How do I create an UptimeRobot monitor from a workflow?

Short answer: You can create monitor in UptimeRobot by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the UptimeRobot Create Monitor action to a workflow, map its 4 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Create Monitor.

What does the Create Monitor action do in UptimeRobot?
Creates a new UptimeRobot monitor (HTTP/HTTPS, keyword, ping, port) for the given URL and interval. Auto-provision monitors when a new service is deployed.
What inputs does Create Monitor require?
Required: Monitor Name, URL, Monitor Type. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if UptimeRobot returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Create Monitor support batch operations?
Yes. Run Create Monitor inside a Loop node to process arrays. TinyCommand handles UptimeRobot's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
