Monitor website uptime and log incidents in Jira and Sheets

Checks your website on a schedule and automatically opens a Jira ticket, alerts Slack, and logs downtime.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Exactly one path is taken; repeats rechecks site on schedule; a person is alerted when a step fails.

The problem it solves

When your website goes down, every minute you don't know about it costs you visitors and trust. Manually checking uptime, opening a ticket, and telling the team wastes time during an actual outage, and incidents often go unrecorded for later review.

Who it fits

An IT, ops, or engineering team responsible for keeping a website online and tracking incidents.

How it works

  1. The site is checked automatically on a set schedule
  2. If it's down, a Jira issue is opened right away
  3. A Slack alert goes out to the team with a link to the ticket
  4. The incident is logged in Google Sheets
  5. When the site recovers, the Jira issue closes and a recovery message is posted
What you get

Outages caught before customers notice

Your website gets checked around the clock, with a ticket and alert created the moment something goes wrong.

What you get

An automatically managed Jira ticket for each outage, a Slack alert, and a logged history in Google Sheets.

What you need

A Slack workspace, a Jira account, and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
