What's New

Recent features and improvements in BackupMonitor.

June 2026

Integration API

Query live backup status counts directly from BackupMonitor using your API key. The new GET /api/integration/counts endpoint returns success, error, warning, and other counts for all active jobs — useful for building internal dashboards, wall displays, or alert scripts that react when the error count rises.

Custom Email Format

If your backup tool doesn't send emails BackupMonitor already recognises, you can now send a simple plain-text email in the BackupMonitor custom format. Include a few labelled fields (Device, Job, Status, Timestamp) and the signature line BackupMonitor Custom — no extra configuration required.

Ingest API

Push backup results and custom notifications to BackupMonitor directly from your own scripts or automation tools — no email required. Two endpoints cover all cases: POST /api/ingest/backup for structured job results and POST /api/ingest/notification for free-form events such as disk space alerts, SSL expiry warnings, or deployment outcomes.
