Using the Cachebuster

When you add a new website uptime monitor, you might need to bust the cache on your monitor's URL when making requests. In doing this you are getting a more accurate uptime check as we'll send a unique timestamp along with each request.

To use our cachebuster, add the following to your monitor URLs:

• ?cachebuster={timestamp}

Any time we detect this, we'll switch out the {timestamo} with an actual timestamp, useful for clearing caches.
