Edit Monitor

Change an SSL & domain monitor's domain, alert lead times, or interval — without losing its history.

You can change an SSL & domain monitor’s settings after it’s created. History and incidents are preserved.

Open the monitor

From Monitors, click the monitor, then choose Edit (or Settings).

What you can change

  • Name — rename without affecting history.
  • Domain / host — point the monitor at a different domain.
  • Alert lead times — adjust when you’re warned before expiry (e.g. 60/30/14/7 days).
  • Check interval — 24, 12, or 6 hours.
  • Alerts — which channels it notifies.

Changes take effect from the next check.

After renewing a certificate

When you renew a certificate, the monitor picks up the new expiry date on its next check automatically — no action needed. Any expiry incident clears once the new, valid certificate is detected.

Pause instead of edit

To stop checks temporarily — a domain being migrated, for example — pause the monitor rather than deleting it. It keeps its full history and can be resumed any time.
