Erralert's Vigilance Service
June 18, 2024: This service is still under constuction. It is getting to be quite useful, however it may have outages while construction is ongoing.
This is a small basic service which can be quite useful. The purpose is to allow you to create some alerts which have a basic 'Dead Man Switch', you can set up an alert which will alert you if it is reported as failing, or if it fails to report for a specified amount of time. An example is to have a powershell script do some work, and then report to this service that it ran successfully. You will only get an alert if powershell reports a failure, or fails to report in for a certain amount of time.
This service is currently free to use for any legal purpose. I currently have no plans to monetize it, although I reserve the right to do so if I need to in the future. If I ever did then I would have some sort of free tier with reasonable limits.
With this service, you do NOT have a password to store. Go to the login page and provide your email address, an email will be sent to you with a special URL which is your login url. If you ever lose it, provide your email address again and a new login will be generated and sent to you.
Some example scripts will be provided which show you a few ways you can incorporate this service. Feel free to incorporate it into your own service.
At the present time, checks are performed every 5 minutes to see if a scheduled report was missed. This may be increased in the future if the need arises for more punctual alerts.
