On-call teams needing a single timeline of what happened and when
Incident Management
Auto-detect, auto-resolve, never lose context.
When a monitor goes down, PingWatchdog automatically creates an incident. When it recovers, the incident resolves itself. Every check is logged so you have a full timeline.
How it works
A monitor fails — PingWatchdog detects it within your check interval
An incident is created automatically with the time, affected endpoint, and error details
Your team gets alerted through your configured channels
When the service recovers, the incident auto-resolves — full timeline preserved
Common use cases
Post-mortem analysis using the full incident history and response time data
Frequently asked questions
Do incidents auto-resolve?
Yes. When a monitor returns to "up" status, any open incident for that monitor is automatically resolved with the recovery timestamp.
Can I manually create incidents?
Yes — you can create incidents manually from the dashboard for events not tied to a specific monitor.
How long is incident history kept?
90 days on Free, 1 year on Solo, and 3 years on Team plans. You can export your data anytime.
