Monitor Uptime Robot with MrCron
MrCron mirrors Uptime Robot up, down, and paused monitor counts every 5 minutes so you can watch website and API uptime on the same dashboard as errors and deploys.
How MrCron monitors Uptime Robot
- Up, down, and paused monitor counts on the linked account.
- Per-monitor down alerts routed through your notification channels.
- Alerts fire when any monitor flips to DOWN state.
- Auth-failure detection with an amber Rotate key CTA when the API key stops working.

Frequently asked questions

- Which Uptime Robot plans are supported?
- Any plan that exposes the getMonitors API endpoint. That includes the free tier.
