SolvedUptime Monitoring

How do I get the uptime percentage for a monitor?

Asked by Marco RossiJul 4, 2026
I need to report monthly availability to my manager. I can see the individual check results in the dashboard but I cannot find a single uptime number anywhere. Is there a report or do I have to compute it myself from the raw results?

Yes, and that is the error you hit. Both the start and the end of the window are mandatory for the timeline and for the response time chart, and the end must be later than the start. There is no default window. For a monthly report: 1. Set the window from the first day of the month to the first day of the next month. 2. Read the uptime percentage from the summary of the response. It is computed as up seconds divided by the total seconds of the window you asked for. 3. If you also want latency for the same report, use the response time chart with the same window. It buckets the data for you, and if you do not choose a bucket size it picks one from the window length: five minute buckets up to a day, hourly up to a week, six hourly up to a month, daily beyond that. One caveat worth stating in your report: the percentage is derived from the checks that actually ran in that window. If the monitor was inactive for part of the month, those hours simply have no data rather than counting as down.

Hi Marco, you do not have to compute it yourself. The uptime percentage comes from the status timeline view for a monitor. Pick the monitor, open its status timeline, and set the time window you care about. The response gives you the contiguous up and down segments plus the uptime percentage for exactly that window.

Is the window required? I tried without one and got an error.

Got it, that is exactly what I needed. The bucket auto-selection is a nice touch.
