Pre-filled "Add check" links

The check create page can be pre-filled from URL query parameters, so you can hand someone a single link that opens the new-check form with the target, schedule, and metadata already populated. This is ideal for "Add this to monitoring" buttons in your READMEs, runbooks, CLI output, and onboarding empty-states.

The form is only pre-filled — nothing is saved until the user reviews the values and clicks Create check. Pre-filling applies to the create page only (/checks/new); the edit page never reads query parameters.

URL shape

https://app.solidping.io/dash0/orgs/<org>/checks/new?<params>

Replace <org> with your organization slug and app.solidping.io with your own host if you self-host.

Supported parameters

Parameter	Example	Maps to
checkType	checkType=http	Check type
checkName	checkName=API%20health	Name
checkSlug	checkSlug=api-health	Slug
checkPeriod	checkPeriod=60	Check interval, in seconds
httpUrl / url	httpUrl=https://example.com	Target URL
httpMethod	httpMethod=POST	HTTP method
host	host=db.example.com	Host
port	port=5432	Port
domain	domain=example.com	Domain
username	username=probe	Username (HTTP: prefills the Basic Auth username)
database	database=app	Database
expectedStatus	expectedStatus=204	Expected HTTP status
timeout	timeout=10	Per-probe timeout, in seconds (1–30)
label	label=env:prod	Label(s) — see below
region	region=us1,eu2	Regions — see below
group	group=production	Group, by its slug
confirmationPeriod	confirmationPeriod=120	Incident confirmation period, in seconds
recoveryPeriod	recoveryPeriod=120	Incident recovery period, in seconds
section	section=flapping	Expand + scroll to a collapsible section

Labels

Labels use key:value pairs. Repeat the parameter, or comma-separate the values, or both:

?label=env:prod&label=team:infra
?label=env:prod,team:infra

Regions

Regions are given by slug. Comma-separate or repeat the singular region parameter:

?region=us1,eu2
?region=us1&region=eu2

Deep-linking a section

The create form groups less-common options into collapsible sections. Pass section=<name> to open one and scroll to it on load — handy when a link is specifically about, say, flapping tuning:

?section=flapping

Section names: organization, dependencies, incident-tracking, flapping, advanced.

Example

Monitor an HTTP endpoint every 30 seconds, expecting a 204, tagged env:staging, in a group called edge:

https://app.solidping.io/dash0/orgs/acme/checks/new?checkType=http&url=https://staging.example.com/health&checkPeriod=30&expectedStatus=204&label=env:staging&group=edge

Unknown or malformed parameters are ignored, and an unrecognized group slug simply leaves the group unset — the form still opens.
