Delete Monitor

Deleting a heartbeat monitor stops it expecting pings, and its ping URL stops working.

Delete a monitor

1. From Monitors, open the heartbeat monitor you want to remove.
2. Open its Settings, then choose Delete.
3. Confirm — deletion is permanent.

What happens

• The monitor stops expecting beats and no longer sends alerts.
• Its ping URL is retired — any request your job makes to it afterward has no effect. Remove the curl call from your job.
• It’s removed from any status page components that referenced it.
• Its history and incidents — the run log — are removed with it. Export or note anything you need first.

Consider pausing instead

Deletion can’t be undone, and it invalidates the ping URL. If a job is only paused temporarily, pause the monitor instead — Spectra stops expecting beats (no false “missed” alerts) but keeps the URL and history, so you can resume without editing your job. See Edit Monitor.
