New type of check: Rest API Check

We are working hard on new features. Today we can again introduce you to another type of check: REST API Check. With this check type you have the option of addressing a REST interface and evaluating its result. To do this, enter the url, the HTTP method and other parameters that are to be used for the check. You also have the option of evaluating the return values (if it is a JSON Rest API) and using the returned values to define the status of the check.

For example, if an interface returns the following:

{ "value": 4 }

you have the possibility to check this value by entering the following in the "Success condition":

value <= 4

This ensures that the value of "value" must be less than or equal to 4 so that the check does not fail.

We will shortly provide a detailed description of this and the other interfaces.
