Synthetic Monitoring
Detect issues before your users do by running automated synthetic tests against your services. Set up HTTP checks, API monitors, and browser-based tests that simulate real user interactions.
Usage
Ask about setting up synthetic monitoring for your services, choosing check frequencies, or monitoring critical user journeys.
Examples
- "How do I set up synthetic monitoring for my login flow?"
- "What endpoints should I monitor with synthetic checks?"
- "How often should my synthetic monitors run?"
Guidelines
- Monitor critical user journeys, not just individual endpoints
- Run checks from multiple geographic locations to detect regional issues
- Set check intervals based on the criticality of the monitored flow
- Alert immediately on synthetic check failures for critical paths
- Use synthetic monitoring data to establish performance baselines
