On this page

Learn how to use Checkly to monitor your vital frontend webapp transactions and backend API’s. Our docs cover everything from initial setup, scripting with extensive JavaScript examples to alerting and integrations.

Getting started: monitoring & alerting

Start with monitoring your key webapp flows, your backend API’s and set up alerting, so you get a notification when things break or slow down.

Create browser checks

Use JavaScript and Headless browsers to navigate, screenshot and assert your key webapp flows. E2E monitoring as it should be.

Create API checks

Monitor the latency and assert the correctness of your API endpoints. Use inline scripts and code to customize everything.

Set up alert channels

Get notified about outages, broken transactions or slow downs in your webapps and APIs. Connect to one of our many integrations like Slack, Pagerduty and Discord. Our Webhooks are especially flexible.
