Heartbeat Examples

Before diving into specific examples, remember these key principles:

Ping only on success - Only send pings when your task completes successfully
Include timeouts - Prevent hanging requests that could block your job
Add retries - Handle temporary network issues gracefully
Position correctly - Place pings at the very end of your success path
Use source headers - Help identify which system sent the ping

Shell Scripts and Command Line

Basic cURL Examples

The most common way to ping heartbeat monitors from shell scripts:

# Basic GET request with timeout and retry
curl -m 5 --retry 3 https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

# With source identification
curl -m 5 --retry 3 \
  -H "Origin: backup-server-prod" \
  https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

# Silent operation (no output)
curl -m 5 --retry 3 -s \
  https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

# POST request (useful for sending job metadata)
curl -X POST -m 5 --retry 3 \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"job":"backup", "duration": 120, "files": 1500}' \
  https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

# Only ping if previous command succeeded
run_backup.sh && curl -m 5 --retry 3 https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

# More robust error handling
if run_backup.sh; then
  echo "Backup successful, sending heartbeat ping"
  curl -m 5 --retry 3 https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id
else
  echo "Backup failed, no ping sent"
  exit 1
fi

wget Alternative

If cURL isn’t available, use wget instead:

# Basic wget with timeout and retry
wget -T 5 -t 3 -q -O /dev/null \
  https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

# In a complete backup script
#!/bin/bash
set -e  # Exit on any error

echo "Starting database backup..."
pg_dump production_db > /tmp/backup.sql

echo "Uploading to S3..."
aws s3 cp /tmp/backup.sql s3://backups/$(date +%Y%m%d).sql

echo "Cleaning up..."
rm /tmp/backup.sql

echo "Sending success ping..."
wget -T 5 -t 3 -q -O /dev/null \
  https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

echo "Backup completed successfully!"

Platform-Specific Integrations

Heroku Scheduler

Monitor Heroku scheduled tasks:

# In your Heroku Scheduler command
run_task.sh && curl -m 5 --retry 3 https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

Render Cron Jobs

For Render cron job services:

#!/bin/bash
# Render cron job script

# Run your task
python process_data.py

# Only ping if successful (exit code 0)
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
  curl -m 5 --retry 3 https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id
fi

Railway Cron Jobs

Similar pattern for Railway scheduled deployments:

# In your railway cron script
npm run data-sync && \
curl -m 5 --retry 3 https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id

Kubernetes Cron Jobs

Basic CronJob with Heartbeat

apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: CronJob
metadata:
  name: nightly-backup
  namespace: production
spec:
  schedule: "0 2 * * *"  # 2 AM daily
  successfulJobsHistoryLimit: 3
  failedJobsHistoryLimit: 3
  jobTemplate:
    spec:
      template:
        spec:
          containers:

Advanced CronJob with Sidecar

For more complex scenarios, use a sidecar pattern:

apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: CronJob
metadata:
  name: data-processing
spec:
  schedule: "0 */6 * * *"  # Every 6 hours
  jobTemplate:
    spec:
      template:
        spec:
          containers:
          # Main job container
          - name: processor
            image: your-app/data-processor:latest
            command: ["/app/process-data"]
            volumeMounts:
            - name: shared-status
              mountPath: /shared
              
          # Heartbeat sidecar
          - name: heartbeat
            image: curlimages/curl:latest
            command:
            - /bin/sh
            - -c
            - |
              # Wait for main container to finish
              while [ ! -f /shared/status ]; do
                sleep 5
              done
              
              # Check if job succeeded
              if [ "$(cat /shared/status)" = "success" ]; then
                curl -m 5 --retry 3 \
                  https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id
              fi
            volumeMounts:
            - name: shared-status
              mountPath: /shared
              
          volumes:

Advanced Patterns

Conditional Heartbeats

Sometimes you only want to ping under certain conditions:

def conditional_heartbeat_example():
    """Only ping heartbeat if certain conditions are met."""
    
    # Run your job
    results = process_data()
    
    # Only ping if we processed a significant amount of data
    if results['processed_count'] > 100:
        ping_heartbeat(
            url="https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id",
            metadata={'processed': results['processed_count']}
        )
        print(f"Heartbeat sent - processed {results['processed_count']} items")
    else:
        print(f"Skipped heartbeat - only processed {results['processed_count']} items")

Multi-Step Job Monitoring

For complex jobs with multiple phases:

#!/bin/bash
set -e

HEARTBEAT_URL="https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-heartbeat-id"
JOB_FAILED=false

# Function to send heartbeat on success
send_success_heartbeat() {
    if [ "$JOB_FAILED" = false ]; then
        curl -m 5 --retry 3 -H "Origin: multi-step-job" "$HEARTBEAT_URL"
        echo "Success heartbeat sent"
    fi
}

# Trap to ensure heartbeat is sent on successful completion
trap send_success_heartbeat EXIT

# Step 1: Download data
echo "Step 1: Downloading data..."
if ! download_data.sh; then
    echo "Data download failed"
    JOB_FAILED=true
    exit 1
fi

# Step 2: Process data  
echo "Step 2: Processing data..."
if ! process_data.sh; then
    echo "Data processing failed"
    JOB_FAILED=true
    exit 1
fi

# Step 3: Upload results
echo "Step 3: Uploading results..."
if ! upload_results.sh; then
    echo "Results upload failed" 
    JOB_FAILED=true
    exit 1
fi

echo "All steps completed successfully"
# Heartbeat will be sent by the EXIT trap

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Network Timeouts

Problem: Pings fail due to network timeouts or slow connections.Solution: Always configure timeouts and retries:

# Good: With timeout and retry
curl -m 5 --retry 3 --retry-delay 2 https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-id

# Add connection timeout too
curl --connect-timeout 10 -m 30 --retry 3 https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-id

Blocked User Agents

Problem: Pings are ignored due to blocked user agents.Blocked user agents: Twitterbot, Slackbot, Googlebot, Discordbot, Facebot, TelegramBot, WhatsApp, LinkedInBotSolution: Use custom user agents:

curl -A "MyApp/1.0" https://ping.checklyhq.com/your-id

Wrong HTTP Methods

Problem: Using unsupported HTTP methods.Supported: GET, POST
Not supported: PUT, DELETE, PATCHSolution: Stick to GET or POST:

# Good
requests.get(heartbeat_url)
requests.post(heartbeat_url, json=metadata)

# Bad - will return error
requests.put(heartbeat_url)

Timing in Error Handling

Problem: Pings sent even when job fails.Solution: Structure your code correctly:

# Good: Ping only on success
try:
    run_job()
    ping_heartbeat()  # Only reached if run_job() succeeds
except Exception:
    # Don't ping on failure
    logging.error("Job failed")
    
# Bad: Always pings
try:
    run_job()
except Exception:
    logging.error("Job failed")
finally:
    ping_heartbeat()  # Always runs!

Testing Your Implementation

Before deploying, test your heartbeat integration:

Manual ping test: Use the Checkly UI to send manual pings
Timeout test: Temporarily block network access to verify timeout behavior
Failure test: Force your job to fail and confirm no ping is sent
Retry test: Add temporary network delays to test retry logic

Start with a short grace period (like 5 minutes) while testing, then increase it to your production requirements once you’re confident in the timing.
