Monitor Zoom Services

You can create web site monitors to monitor the status of Zoom services. Zoom
becomes ubiquitous nowadays and it's important to know when the zoom service
is down so that we can take alternative way to communicate.

Zoom provides an API for checking the status of the service.
We can use SysUpTime to create web site monitors to check the status. Here are the steps to
create the monitor.

  1. Press "Add Monitor" button on toolbar to bring up a dialog and select "Web Site", and enter the following URL to the URL field: Screen1 Zoom Status Page URL: https://status.zoom.us/api/v2/components.json The output of the status page is in JSON format. An example:

  1. Press "Configure" button to configure "Threshold settings" and select "content match", then press "Edit" button, and we see the following screen:

    Screen2

  2. Select "JSON format, and enter values, so we will monitor the status of "Live Streaming" service

    Screen3

  3. In the threshold screen, enter "operational", which means if the value is not "operational", an alarm will be raised.

    Screen4

Now a monitor has been created for checking the status of "Live Streaming" service, the following is the graph:
Graph

We then can create more monitors to check the status of other zoom services.
