Cron job monitoring

Monitor cron jobs with one line of curl

Add a ping to the end of any crontab entry and get alerted the moment it stops running on schedule.

0 2 * * * /usr/local/bin/backup.sh && curl -fsS https://pingark.com/ping/your-id

How it works

Create a check with the schedule and a grace period. Your job pings its unique URL on every run. Miss the deadline plus grace and PingArk alerts you.

Failure context included

Signal start, success, failure and exit codes. Attach logs to pings. See run durations trend over time.

Alerts that reach you

Email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, webhooks and PagerDuty. One alert per incident and a recovery notice, never a flood.

Free for 20 checks. No card required.
