SMS Uptime Integration

Get Uptime Alerts via SMS

Connect Zunoy Uptime to SMS for the alerts that genuinely can't wait. A text reaches you whether you're at your desk, asleep, or somewhere with no Slack open, no app to check, just a notification on the lock screen.

Why It Helps

For When a Notification Can't Wait

An email can sit unread for an hour. A Slack message gets buried under everything else. A text shows up on the lock screen the second it arrives, which matters most when something's genuinely down.

    • Reaches you even with every other app closed or muted

    • Text messaging doesn’t depend on internet access, just a phone signal

    • Reserved for the alerts that actually warrant an interruption

Notifications

What Triggers a Text

Texts should stay rare enough that you never learn to ignore them. Pick only what genuinely deserves one.

  • Monitor Down

    An SMS uptime notification lands within seconds of a monitor failing, hard to miss even on silent.

  • Incident Assigned

    A short SMS incident alert arrives the moment an incident lands on your name, wherever you actually are.

  • SLA Breach

    An SMS uptime notification goes out the instant a monitor breaches its SLA threshold, not after the fact.

  • Escalation Triggered

    A text fires when an unacknowledged alert escalates to you, next in line on the schedule.

Keep this list short, a text should mean something's actually urgent.

FAQ

Quick Answers About the SMS Integration

Does Zunoy Uptime send SMS alerts?

Yes. Zunoy Uptime’s SMS monitoring integration sends text message alerts to any phone number you verify during setup. SMS works even when your other apps are closed or muted, so it’s best for the alerts that can’t wait.

What alerts does Zunoy Uptime send by SMS?

Zunoy Uptime can send four types of uptime alerts via SMS: monitor down, incident assignment, SLA breach, and escalation triggered. Only the alert types you’ve turned on are sent.

Can I send SMS alerts to more than one phone number?

Yes. Set up a separate SMS monitoring integration for each phone number that needs alerts.

How do I set up uptime alerts via SMS in Zunoy Uptime?

Go to Integrations in your Zunoy Uptime workspace, select Phone Number, give the integration a name, and enter the number that should receive texts. Then enter the one-time code sent to that phone. Verification makes sure texts only reach a number you control, not one entered by mistake.

Which alerts should I send by SMS?

Only the urgent ones. If every event sends a text, people start ignoring them. Keep SMS for alerts that need someone to act right away, and route the rest to email, Slack, or Microsoft Teams.

Why am I not receiving SMS alerts after verifying my number?

Confirm the phone number is correct, check whether your carrier is filtering the texts as spam, and make sure the alert types you expect are turned on.
