TERRAFORM
There’s a better way to monitor your assets
Defining your checks as code with Checkly’s Terraform provider makes monitoring large websites and APIs a breeze.
payment-check.tf
resource "checkly_check" "stripe-charges" {
name = "Stripe Charges"
type = "API"
activated = true
frequency = 1
ssl_check = true
use_global_alert_settings = true
locations = ["eu-central-1"]
request {
url = "https://api.stripe.com/v1charges"
follow_redirects = true
assertion {
source = "STATUS_CODE"
comparison = "EQUALS"
target = "200"
}
}
Your app’s code lives in source control.
Your monitoring should too.
Compatible with your workflow
Already using Terraform for IaC? Great. Not using Terraform yet? Easily plug it into your existing pipeline.
Increased transparency
Declaring your checks as code aligns your monitoring with your releases and rollbacks, while also serving as documentation.
One setup for local and cloud
Seamlessly develop and test your checks locally, push to source control and apply automatically.
Provision all you need in just seconds
Managing your checks, groups, alert channels and other monitoring resources should never be the bottleneck for shipping more code or increasing visibility into the state of your systems.

Scale across teams and projects
Need hundreds or thousands of checks running at all times, giving teams the flexibility to manage their own resources independently? We take the power of IaC and apply it to monitoring.
