An admin UI for spatie/laravel-uptime-monitor in your Filament panel. Add, edit, turn on and off and delete monitors, see uptime and SSL certificate status at a glance, and check a site right now instead of waiting for the scheduler. It works with Filament 4 and 5.

#What it does

spatie/laravel-uptime-monitor checks your sites on a schedule and notifies you when one goes down, comes back, or has a certificate problem. You manage it from the command line (monitor:create, monitor:list, ...). This plugin adds the screen for it:

• Monitors page: every monitor with its uptime status (up, down, not checked yet, off) and how long it has been that way, the certificate status with its expiry date, and when it was last checked. Hover a down site or an invalid certificate to read the reason.
• Filters: uptime, certificate (valid, expires soon, invalid, not checked, off), on or off, and "needs attention".
• Add and edit: URL, uptime and certificate checks, interval, HTTP method, text to look for, request body and extra headers. Changing the URL resets the old status.
• Check now: run the uptime and certificate checks for one monitor, or for a selection, with the package's own code and config. You see the result straight away. Each user may check up to 30 monitors a minute: every monitor that is on and that the user may check counts, including one that is then skipped for a private address. A bulk check over 20 selected monitors is refused as a whole. Both limits are configurable.
• Turn on and off, one at a time or in bulk, using the package's enable() and disable().
• Dashboard widget: up, down, certificate problems, and the time of the last check, with a hint when the scheduler seems to have stopped.
• Navigation badge with the number of monitors that need attention.

It uses the package's model, table and config as they are. It adds no tables or migrations of its own and does not change how the scheduled checks or notifications work.

#Requirements

• PHP 8.2+ (with Filament 5, tested on PHP 8.3+)
• Laravel 12 or 13
• Filament 4 or 5
• spatie/laravel-uptime-monitor 4.7+

#Installation

Laravel 13: add -W. A new Laravel 13 app ships Guzzle 8, but spatie/laravel-uptime-monitor needs Guzzle 7 (this plugin requires ^4.7; 4.7.0 and 4.7.1, the 4.7+ releases so far, require ^7.4|^7.2). A plain composer require amjadiqbal/filament-uptime-monitor stops with "guzzlehttp/guzzle ... is fixed to 8.3.0 (lock file version)" and changes nothing. With -W, Composer moves Guzzle back to 7.16.0 (psr7 2.13.2, promises 2.6.0), which Laravel 13 supports. Tested 2026-10-23 on a new Laravel 13.38.0 + Filament 5.10.3 app: the install succeeded, the app's own tests passed, and Laravel's HTTP client and the monitor:* commands worked. There is no open upstream issue or PR for Guzzle 8 yet (#383, which proposed moving the checks to Laravel's HTTP client, was closed without merging).

# Laravel 12
composer require amjadiqbal/filament-uptime-monitor

# Laravel 13
composer require amjadiqbal/filament-uptime-monitor -W

If you haven't set up the uptime monitor package yet, publish its config and migration, then migrate:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\UptimeMonitor\UptimeMonitorServiceProvider"
php artisan migrate

Schedule its checks (in routes/console.php). The plugin does not schedule anything itself:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schedule;

Schedule::command('monitor:check-uptime')->everyMinute();
Schedule::command('monitor:check-certificate')->daily();

Register the plugin in your panel provider:

use AmjadIqbal\FilamentUptimeMonitor\UptimeMonitorPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        // ...
        ->plugin(UptimeMonitorPlugin::make());
}

The plugin uses only Filament's own components, so there are no assets to build or publish.

#Configuration

Everything is optional:

UptimeMonitorPlugin::make()
    ->navigationGroup('Monitoring')
    ->navigationSort(10)
    ->navigationLabel('Uptime')
    ->navigationBadge(false)                // hide the "needs attention" count
    ->dashboardWidget(false)                // leave the widget off the dashboard
    ->listWidget(false)                     // and off the monitors page
    ->maxChecksPerRequest(20)               // a bulk "Check now" over this many monitors is refused (default 20)
    ->checksPerMinute(30)                   // monitors one user may check by hand per minute (default 30)
    ->responseCheckers([                    // let users pick a response checker per monitor
        \App\Uptime\JsonHealthChecker::class => 'JSON health endpoint',
    ])
    ->allowPrivateHosts()                   // see "Private addresses" below
    ->resource(\App\Filament\Resources\MyMonitorResource::class); // your own subclass

What comes from the package's config/uptime-monitor.php:

#Permissions

By default every user who can open the panel can see and change monitors. Two ways to restrict that:

A policy for the monitor model (Spatie\UptimeMonitor\Models\Monitor, or your monitor_model). The plugin uses viewAny, create, update, delete and deleteAny. "Check now" uses a checkNow method when the policy has one, and update when it doesn't. A missing method allows the action.

Gate::policy(\Spatie\UptimeMonitor\Models\Monitor::class, \App\Policies\MonitorPolicy::class);

A closure, which replaces the policy:

UptimeMonitorPlugin::make()
    ->authorizeUsing(fn (string $ability, ?Monitor $record, $user): bool => $user->is_admin);

$ability is one of viewAny, view, create, update, delete, deleteAny and checkNow. Bulk actions check every selected record and report the ones they skipped.

Monitors are global: the package's table has no tenant column, so in a multi-tenant panel every tenant sees the same monitors. Restrict the page with a policy or authorizeUsing() there.

#Private addresses

"Check now" makes your server send a request to the monitor's URL. So that a panel user can't use it to reach internal services, the plugin refuses URLs on localhost or on private, loopback, link-local and other reserved addresses:

• When a monitor is saved, the host is looked up and refused if any of its addresses is private. A host that does not resolve yet is accepted, because its DNS may simply not be live.
• Right before a check started from the panel, the host is looked up again. A private address is skipped, and a host that does not resolve is marked down ("Could not resolve host"). The request is then pinned to one of the checked addresses (the first IPv4 one if there is one) with curl's CURLOPT_RESOLVE, so DNS can't switch to a private address in between. Pinning is skipped for URLs with an IP address as host (nothing to resolve) and when CURLOPT_RESOLVE isn't available. A redirect to another host is checked against the private list and refused if private, but the redirected request is not pinned.
• The pinning and redirect checks run in the plugin's own subclass of the package's request action. If you set your own actions.send_uptime_check_request in config/uptime-monitor.php, your action is used as it is, so the pre-check lookup still applies, but pinning and redirect refusal are up to your action. Pinning needs PHP's curl extension, which Guzzle uses by default.
• The certificate check opens its own TLS connection to port 443 of the host (the package's code). It only reads the certificate, and it is not pinned.

If you do monitor internal services, allow them:

UptimeMonitorPlugin::make()->allowPrivateHosts();

This guard covers the panel only. The package's scheduled monitor:check-uptime checks every stored monitor as it is.
