Feature Requests Allow using POST method for monitoring

Completed

I’d like to switch to monitoring my API endpoint with updown.io, but the primary endpoint uses POST. Being able to provide custom headers is certainly nice, but being able to customize the request further (i.e. method and submitted content) would be much nicer. Site24x7 which I’m using now lets you provide form data and even check returned value for specific JSON fields.

Well @Daniel you can already provide custom headers for the request, you can configure this by clicking the </> button. This idea is more about verbs and custom body.

updown.io is a very simple and excellent UI!

It is a pity that POST can not be used.

I need POST too!
