Developer ResourcesBuild a tailored monitoring solution through custom plugins and Scout's API.

Custom Plugins

With a couple of lines of Ruby, you'll be able to monitor anything. Create your first Scout plugin in minutes.

API

Easily integrate Scout into your workflow: assign roles, adjust notifications, and more.

{
  "id": 999999,
  "time": "2012-03-05T15:36:51Z",
  "server_name": "Blade",
  "server_hostname": "blade",
  "lifecycle": "start", // can be [start|end]
    

Webhooks

Scout can perform an HTTP POST (a webhook call) when a trigger generates an alert.
