Frequently asked questions about the Better Stack MCP Server
Can I check if a specific website is down using the agent?
Yes! Use the list_monitors tool to see the status of all your monitored URLs. You can also use get_monitor with a specific ID to see its current status and last checked timestamp.
How do I see who is currently on-call?
Simply ask the agent to list_on_calls. It will retrieve the current schedules and rotations, showing you who is responsible for incident response right now.
Does the integration allow me to create a new heartbeat monitor?
Currently, the toolset focuses on managing monitors and retrieving incident/on-call data. You can list and inspect heartbeats, but for creating new monitors with complex notification rules, we recommend using the Better Stack dashboard.
