Uptime Kuma alerts as iPhone push notifications
Uptime Kuma can call a webhook whenever a monitor goes down or recovers. Point it at Pling and you get an iPhone push the moment something goes down, marked high priority, with the recovery push when it comes back.
The webhook URL
One endpoint handles up and down events. Swap in your token:
https://api.plingpush.com/api/ingest/uptimekuma/YOUR_TOKENStep by step
- In Uptime Kuma open Settings → Notifications → Setup Notification.
- Set Notification Type to Webhook.
- Set Post URL to the ingest URL above and Content Type to
application/json. - Save, then enable the notification on your monitors (or make it the default).
- Use Test to send a sample and confirm the push arrives.
What the push looks like
- Title — the monitor name plus "is up" or "is down".
- Message — the heartbeat reason (for example the HTTP status or error).
- Priority — down events are high priority; recoveries are normal.
- Tap target — the monitor's URL.
Frequently asked
Which content type should I use?
Use application/json, which is Uptime Kuma's default for the Webhook notification. Pling reads the standard heartbeat and monitor fields it sends.
Does it notify on recovery too?
Yes. A down event arrives as a high-priority push, and when the monitor comes back up you get a normal-priority recovery push.
Can one notification cover many monitors?
Yes. Create the Webhook notification once and enable it on as many monitors as you like, or set it as the default for new monitors.
Where do I get my token?
Create an API token in the Pling app or at plingpush.com/account and use it in place of YOUR_TOKEN in the Post URL.
