Monitor Netlify.Hear only when it matters.
Find out a deploy failed before you tell a customer the fix is live.
What Beaam does with Netlify
Beaam imports every Netlify site the token can see and checks provider state, production deploy outcomes, stuck production builds, and custom-domain TLS every minute. A failed deploy is degraded rather than broken because Netlify keeps serving the last good build.
What raises an incident
Curated deliberately: a short list worth your attention, not every metric that exists. Signals that can blip need repeated evidence before Beaam calls them; a reading that is definitive by nature — the provider reporting a failure outright — alerts on the first observation.
| Signal | When Beaam speaks up |
|---|---|
| Production deploy | The latest production outcome stays failed until a newer production publish succeeds; a build stuck for 30 minutes is degraded. |
| Site and TLS | A disabled, paused, suspended, or errored site is broken. A missing or invalid custom-domain certificate is broken; 14 days to expiry is degraded. |
Also collected, but quiet
Charted on the service page and there for context when something does break — but it will not wake you unless you ask it to.
- Production deploys
- Provider state
What connecting needs
- Sign in with Netlify, or a personal access token (
nfp_). Netlify has no scopes: either grant covers the whole account, read and write. Beaam only reads with it.
What Beaam will not tell you
Stated rather than discovered later. Some of these are deliberate — an alert that is not about your system is noise — and some are simply where this integration's view ends.
- Netlify's API cannot prove a visitor gets the right response. Beaam offers a one-click HTTP check of each site's own URL to cover it.
- No function or runtime errors, edge traffic or log drains — those are an Enterprise stream.
- Preview and branch deploys never affect health.
- A failed deploy is degraded, not broken. Account credit exhaustion is not predicted.
setup
Designed to stay small
Sign in with Netlify — no token to create. Beaam imports every site it can see, and only ever reads.
Beaam applies sensible defaults. Threshold configuration is optional, not onboarding.
access
Never writes, and revocable
Beaam never writes to Netlify. Credentials are encrypted with AES-256-GCM using a key held as a deploy secret, and are deleted immediately when you disconnect.
Questions
What does Beaam alert on for Netlify?
2 signals can raise an incident: Production deploy, Site and TLS. Everything else is collected for context but stays quiet until you opt in.
How long does it take to connect Netlify?
Sign in with Netlify — no token to create. Beaam imports every site it can see, and only ever reads. Most connections are watching within a few minutes, and you can send a test alert immediately to prove the path works end to end.
Does Beaam need write access to Netlify?
No. Beaam only ever performs read operations — there is no code path that writes to a connected provider. Worth separating from that: what Beaam *does* and what a token *permits* are different things. Where Netlify offers a read-scoped credential, use it; some providers only issue tokens carrying broader rights than Beaam uses, which is a property of their API rather than of Beaam's behaviour. Scope it as narrowly as the provider allows. Credentials are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before storage and deleted the moment you disconnect.
What does Netlify monitoring cost?
The free plan covers two integrations and five watched services, with email, Slack and webhook alerts. Solo is $19/month flat for unlimited integrations, services and organizations, with collaborators included — there is no per-host, per-check or per-alert metering.
Watching more than Netlify?
Most stacks are several services with seams between them, and the seams are where the damaging failures hide. Beaam correlates across every connected integration, so a database problem reads as one incident rather than five alarms from five tools.
