How to View Monitor Metrics

Explore response time charts, uptime statistics, SSL expiry, and historical check results for any monitor.

Opening the Monitor Detail Page

There are two ways to open the detail page for a monitor:

Click the monitor's name in the Monitors list
Click the chart icon on the monitor's row in the Monitors list

The detail page fetches data from the edge server that runs this monitor.

Header Summary Card

At the top of the page, a summary card shows the most important information at a glance:

Field	Description
Monitor Name	The name you gave this monitor
Status	Up or Down, updated on every page load
Monitor Type	http, https, ping, port, keyword, or dns
Current Response Time	Round-trip latency from the last check (ms)
Last Checked	Timestamp of the most recent check
Check Interval	How often the monitor runs (e.g., every 5 minutes)
Target URL / Host	The URL or host being monitored (clickable link for HTTP/HTTPS)

Uptime Statistics

Three uptime percentage figures are shown prominently beneath the header:

24-hour Uptime

Percentage of checks in the last 24 hours that succeeded.

7-day Uptime

Percentage of checks over the past 7 days that succeeded.

30-day Uptime

Percentage of checks over the past 30 days that succeeded. This is the figure typically shown on public status pages.

How uptime is calculated Uptime % = (number of successful checks ÷ total checks) × 100. A check is successful if the target is reachable and returns the expected response. Paused periods are excluded from the denominator.

Time Range Selector

Use the time range selector at the top of the charts section to zoom in or out:

1 hour — high-resolution view for recent incidents
24 hours — daily overview (default)
7 days — weekly trend
30 days — monthly trend
Custom — pick any start and end date

All charts update simultaneously when you change the time range.

Charts

Response Time Chart

A line chart showing the total round-trip response time in milliseconds over the selected period. Each data point represents one check. Gaps in the chart indicate periods when the monitor was paused or the check timed out.

Hover over a point to see the exact time and value
Downtime periods are shaded in red on the chart background

Status Over Time (Timeline Bar)

A color-coded horizontal bar showing Up (green) and Down (red) periods. This makes it easy to spot recurring outages or time-of-day patterns. Hover over a segment to see the exact start and end times.

TTFB — Time to First Byte (HTTP / HTTPS monitors only)

The time in milliseconds from when the request was sent to when the server sent back its first byte of response. High TTFB values indicate slow backend processing independent of network latency.

DNS Resolution Time (HTTP / HTTPS monitors only)

Time taken by the edge server to resolve the monitor's domain name. Spikes here point to DNS infrastructure problems rather than web server issues.

TCP Connection Time (HTTP / HTTPS / Port monitors)

Time to complete the TCP (and TLS) handshake. High values may indicate network congestion or TLS misconfiguration.

SSL Certificate Expiry (HTTPS monitors only)

A gauge showing the number of days until the SSL certificate expires. Color coding:

Green: More than 30 days remaining
Yellow: 14–30 days remaining
Red: Fewer than 14 days remaining

Configure an alert on SSL expiry in Configure Alerts to be notified before the certificate expires.

Check History Table

Below the charts, a paginated table lists every individual check result. Columns include:

Column	Description
Timestamp	When the check ran (shown in your local timezone)
Status	Up or Down
Response Time	Total round-trip time in milliseconds
HTTP Status Code	The HTTP status code returned (e.g., 200, 503)
Edge Server	Which edge ran this check (e.g., us-ash, eu-fr)

Tip: Click a Down row Clicking a row with a Down status expands it to show the full error message from the edge server — useful for diagnosing what specifically went wrong (e.g., connection refused, SSL handshake failed, keyword not found).
