Overview

The List Heartbeat Events endpoint returns all events (pings) received for a specific heartbeat check. Events include timestamps, status information, and metadata about each heartbeat signal. Common Use Cases:
  • Event History Review
  • Process Activity Tracking
  • Troubleshooting Missed Pings

Heartbeat events show the complete ping history for your monitored processes, including successful pings, late arrivals, and missed signals.
