Believe you can do this in Signoz: https://signoz.io/docs/monitor-http-endpoints/
ah, this is the answer I was hoping for. thank you!
edit: on second read, it sounds like regular uptime monitoring for your API would do the trick
Free and easy. Not affiliated, just a happy user.
I combine it with a service like uptimerobot to get messages if the heartbeat stopped.
You need to implement a deadman switch. For example if using Prometheus you can configure it to access an HTTP endpoint of a deadman switch service every X seconds. When that service detects you have not accessed it in some time it will alert you. For example: https://blog.ediri.io/how-to-set-up-a-dead-mans-switch-in-pr...
And now you need to monitor the deadman switch service!
If you're on AWS, there's already heartbeat monitoring and that can integrate with CloudWatch to notify PagerDuty.

on second read, this is something that is set up on the service-side. I.e. if our service goes down, we would also stop sending data to Signoz Cloud. We wouldn't be able to run a status check, let alone send it to signoz cloud.
