Description

✅ What problem does this workflow solve?

Automatically monitor multiple websites every 5 minutes, log downtime, notify your team instantly via multiple channels, and track uptime/downtime in a Google Sheet—without relying on expensive monitoring tools.

⚙️ What does this workflow do?

1. Triggers every 5 minutes to monitor website health.
2. Fetches a list of website URLs from a Google Sheet.
3. Checks the status of each website one by one.
4. Sends instant alerts if a website is down (Email, Slack, Telegram, Voice Call).
5. Logs downtime events in Google Sheets.
6. Tracks when websites are back up and updates the log.
7. Sends recovery notifications when a site is live again (Email, Slack, Telegram).

🔧 Setup

📄 Google Sheets Setup

• Sheet 1: List of website URLs to monitor.
• Sheet 2: Log to store uptime/downtime records. Sample Format: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_VVpkIvpYQigw5q0KmPXUAC2aV2rk1nRQLQZ7YK2KwY/edit?usp=sharing

✉️ Gmail, Slack & Telegram Setup

• Connect Gmail, Slack, and Telegram to n8n.
• Configure each service with proper credentials or OAuth.

📞 Vapi (Voice Call) Setup

• Create a Vapi account.
• Generate an API key.
• Configure API Parameters (vapi_api_key, assistant_id, number, phone_number_id) on VAPI Node.
• Insert the First Message specified in the Workflow.

🧠 How it Works

⏱ 1. Scheduled Monitoring

A Schedule Trigger runs the workflow every 5 minutes. It reads the list of URLs from the Google Sheet and loops through each one.

🌍 2. Website Health Check

Each website is pinged to check if it’s online.

🔴 3. If Website is Down:

• It verifies if a downtime record already exists.
• If not, it:
  • Adds a new row in the Google Sheet with the timestamp.
  • Sends notifications via:
    • 📧 Email
    • 💬 Slack
    • 📲 Telegram
    • 📞 Voice Call via Vapi

🟢 4. If Website is Back Up:

• It fetches the matching downtime record.
• Updates the sheet with:
  • ✅ Uptime timestamp
  • ⏱ Total downtime duration
• Sends recovery notifications via:
  • 📧 Email
  • 💬 Slack
  • 📲 Telegram
    (No phone call is made for uptime.)

👤 Who can use it?

This is perfect for:

• 🚀 Startups
• 👨‍💻 Freelance Developers
• 🛠 SaaS Product Owners
• 🖥 IT/DevOps Teams

If you’re looking to replace tools like UptimeRobot, Pingdom, or StatusCake, this no-code solution gives you full control, customization, and cost-efficiency.
