Using Tags
Organize and filter monitors with color-coded tags across all monitor types.
Tags let you label any monitor — website, DNS, ICMP, SMTP, SSH, FTP, or IMAP/POP — with one or more color-coded badges. You can then filter every monitor list by tag and instantly see which monitors belong to a group (e.g. "Production", "Client A", "Staging").
Creating Tags
Open Settings → Tags and click New Tag. Provide:
- Name — a short label, up to 50 characters.
- Color — choose from the fixed palette:
slate,red,amber,green,teal,blue,indigo,violet,pink, orgray.
Tags are organization-scoped: every member with sufficient permissions can see and use them.
Readonly member rule
Readonly members can create tags, but those tags are visible only to themselves. A readonly member cannot see, update, or delete tags created by other users. They can assign their own tags to any monitor they have read access to.

Assigning Tags
Tags can be assigned in two places:
From the monitor list (inline)
In any monitor list (Websites, DNS, ICMP, etc.) find the Tags column. Click the tag chip area on a row to open the tag picker and toggle tags on or off for that monitor.
From the monitor detail page
Open a monitor's detail page and locate the Tags section. Use the tag picker to add or remove tags. Changes are saved immediately.
The Tags Column
The Tags column is visible by default in every monitor list. To get a more compact view, toggle the column off using the Columns menu at the top of the list. Your preference is saved per list.
Filtering by Tag
At the top of any monitor list, open the Filter menu and select one or more tags. The list narrows to show only monitors that carry all of the selected tags (AND logic). To clear the filter, deselect all tags or click Reset filters.
Managing Tags
Go to Settings → Tags to see the full tag list. From there you can:
- Edit a tag's name or color (owner or admin only).
- Delete a tag — this removes the tag from every monitor it was assigned to (cascade delete).
API Reference
See the Tags API for programmatic access to create, update, delete, and assign tags.

Status Pages
Status pages let you communicate service health to your customers transparently — live overall state, a per-service breakdown, and a short history of recent incidents and maintenance. Each page is fully brandable and can run on your own domain (e.g. status.example.com).
