Ability to choose the SSL expiry window#80

At the moment we receive notifications from UptimeRobot when an SSL certificate is 14 days away from expiring. The problem is that our server automatically renews the SSL certificate 12 days before expiry. So we always ignore the notifications from UptimeRobot. However, if we could choose the number of days until expiry where we want to be notified, that would make that feature very useful. For example, I would want to know if a certificate was expiring in 8 days - because that would mean the auto-renewal didn’t work. Other people might want a 5 day timeframe. Who knows. If we could choose our own window for the number of days, that would be great.

Uptime Robot just notified me when we had 30 days before expiry. Of course that’s about the time a lot of ACME tools renew certificates (3 month certificate, renew when 1 month remaining). When investigating the alert, my server had already renewed the cert.

Also please do not send me such a notification about 14 days to expire at 4:00 AM!

SSL expiration is not an udgent update you expect to see while you sleep.

Currently this is 11th in terms of number of votes. There are 6 in progress, 4 of which are above this ;-(

My guess is unfortuantly that uptimerobot will never implement this, my recommendation would be to disable it and get the service else where.

This request has been going on for more than two years.

I just seems they don’t care

https://github.com/codex-team/check-ssl-cert-expire-date/tree/master

Cloudflare proxy is extremely popular and they do not renew certificates until much closer to the renewal date than 30 days - so Uptimerobot SSL monitoring is currently not compatible without generating a huge pile of false positives.

Absolutly - this should be priotize as it’s pretty much all false-positive at this point and randomly at 2-5am is more of an annoyance than a usable feature.

statuscake.com Has the support to define timeframe the alerts for ssl expiration, just thinking either UptimeRobot don’t have the competences to develop this or they just don’t care…. don’t know what is worse
