Purpose

WebSiteWatchDog checks periodically if a website returns the status code 200 (OK) or something else. If the status code changes, the flow sends an email notification to its owner.

The flow doesn't require the premium "HTTP" action — it uses a workaround described in the Power Platform community forum.

It also saves the status retrieved in the previous iteration in the open extension.

Current version: 1.0.3

Installation

  1. Download the "WebsiteWatchDog3.zip" file.
  2. Open Power Automate and import "WebsiteWatchDog3.zip" as a new flow, following the Power Automate documentation.
    Importing the flow ZIP file into Power Automate
  3. Enter the URL of the website to monitor in the "WebSiteURL" variable.
    Entering the WebSiteURL value in the flow
  4. Turn on the flow.
