# Your existing backup job

# Add cron.win ping โ€” just append to the command
0 2 * * * /usr/bin/pg_dump mydb > /backups/db.sql && curl -fsS https://cron.win/p/db-backup

โœ“ If the ping doesn't arrive by 2:05am โ†’ you get alerted

How it works

1

Create a monitor

Give it a name and a grace period (how long to wait before alerting).

2

Ping when your job finishes

Add a curl to your cron job, CI pipeline, backup script, or anywhere.

curl -fsS https://cron.win/p/your-slug
3

Get alerted when it doesn't

If the ping doesn't arrive within the grace period, we notify you on Slack, Discord, or a custom webhook.

Everything you need

Simple by design. Powerful where it counts.
