Advanced REST API & Payload Monitoring

Ensure your mobile app backends and checkout webhooks are actually processing data. Go beyond HTTP status codes with deep payload injection.

Custom JSON POST Payloads

Simulate real user behavior. Send mock 'add to cart' or 'login' data directly to your API endpoints.

Bearer Token Authentication

Safely pass Authorization headers and API keys to monitor protected microservices and GraphQL endpoints.

Browser Masking Technology

Our engine uses sophisticated User-Agent masking to ensure accurate testing without triggering basic bot protections.

Technical Capabilities

Under the hood of our Enterprise Golang architecture.

Dynamic Header Injection

Inject custom Content-Type, Authorization, or proprietary specific API headers per request.

Payload Serialization

Safe JSON serialization ensures complex nested objects are transmitted perfectly to your backend.

WAF Bypass Rules

Intelligent recognition of 403 Forbidden responses from Akamai/Cloudflare to prevent false positives.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I monitor an API endpoint that requires authentication?

PingStag's Pro and Scale plans allow full header customization. You can easily add an 'Authorization' key with your 'Bearer YOUR_TOKEN' value, along with 'Content-Type: application/json', to securely authenticate and monitor protected REST APIs.

What happens if a WAF blocks the monitoring bot?

PingStag features Smart WAF Detection. If Cloudflare, Akamai, or DDoS-Guard returns a 403 Forbidden specifically blocking our bot, our engine understands the Origin server is actually operational and suppresses the false downtime alert.
