PUT   checks/url-v2/{checkId}

Updates a URL check (version 2).

URL Parameters

NameDescription
checkId

Check identifier. Type: numeric.

Remarks

Check can include content verification: it fails if response content doesn’t match the content_pattern.
Content verification can be literal (content_pattern_type = 'literal') or regular expression (content_pattern_type = 'regex').
The field content_pattern_case_sensitive indicates whether content verification is case-sensitive or not.

Thresholds

There is a set of properties (each starts with threshold_) used for thresholds definition. Read more on thresholds here.

Scheduled Inclusion/Exclusion

The scheduled_inclusion and scheduled_exclusion parameters define specific day/time ranges when the check will run or not run respectively.
Set empty string to reset the value. Read more on the schedule syntax here.

Interval

The interval_seconds field defines the frequency of running check. Set interval_seconds = 0 if the check should run manually.
