Scans & Monitoring
Scans are the core unit of monitoring in Upscano. Each scan targets a single URL or endpoint.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Human-readable label for the scan. |
| URL | The endpoint to monitor (HTTP/HTTPS). |
| Team | The team responsible for this scan. |
| Check Interval | How frequently Upscano checks the endpoint (depends on your plan). |
| Status | UP or DOWN, determined by the HTTP response. |
| Response Time | Round-trip latency in milliseconds. |
Teams
Teams group your scans and members together. Every scan belongs to a team.
- • Create multiple teams to organize scans by product, environment, or squad.
- • Invite members via email — they will receive an invitation to join your team.
- • Team members can view and manage scans assigned to that team.
- • The number of teams and members per team is determined by your subscription plan.
Incidents
When a scan goes DOWN, Upscano automatically creates an incident to track the outage.
Auto-created
Incidents are created automatically when a scan detects a failure.
Timeline
Each incident has a full timeline of status changes and resolution.
Resolution
Incidents are automatically resolved when the scan recovers.
History
Full incident history is retained according to your data retention plan.
Status Pages
Public-facing status pages let your customers check service health without contacting support. Each status page is accessible at a unique URL like app.upscano.com/status/your-slug.
- • Link one or more scans to a status page.
- • Customize the name and slug of your status page.
- • Share the public URL with your users — no login required to view.
- • Status pages update in real-time as scans change state.
Notifications
Stay informed about incidents and recovery events through multiple channels.
Get instant email alerts when a scan goes down or recovers.
Webhooks
Send incident events to any HTTP endpoint — Slack, PagerDuty, custom systems.
In-App
View all notification history directly inside the Upscano dashboard.
