🚧

Please note the status integration is currently a beta feature and may change.

Every Meya app has a built-in status integration that can be used to probe for bot uptime and latency. The endpoint will probe your app’s end-to-end functionality by responding to an http request and creating a SayEvent. There is a built-in flow that will respond with a status 200 and a JSON payload with text = “STATUS OK” to indicate that your bot is functional. Any other response implies that your bot is down.
