Thank you for code sample, I will definitely use it.
Also one more thing: if anyone has ideas on what methods of notification should be implemented, please let me know in this thread. I will consider it.

I’m currently using UptimeRobot (for over a year) which has an app for my iphone. I get alerts within 5 min of a problem on the server and it’s currently free for up to 50 servers.
It would be nice to have an additional backup but I think the above service works well and costs the foundation nothing.
Just my 2 cents
Hello @maju,
Thanks for your proposal! After seeing the value in another tool for host reliability and stability, the committee was happy to approve this grant request.
We’ll reach out via email with onboarding instructions.
Regards,
Kino on behalf of the Sia Foundation and Grants Committee
Glad to hear that! I’ve replied to your email.
Progress Report
This month no progress has been done, except completing onboarding and signing agreement. The whole schedule is going to be shifted by two weeks (it’s already included in the agreement). Additionally my friend decided to help me make project happen and he will be responsible for front-end.
Additionally, our plan is:
This month I will be working on:
I hope there will be no more delays.
Updates on our plan:
We have:
This month I will be working on:
Next month I will be working on:
All of the code is available in our main repo.
You can see some of the UI at https://sia.watch using login nobody@all and empty password until Monday (2.10.2023). We will be removing local log-in functionality in upcoming week and replacing it with Google/Microsoft sign-on, which will allow only trusted members to log-in until open beta begins.
Hi all! Bad news… We are having a delay.
We have:
This month we will be working on:
If you are willing to participate in closed alpha, please email me at [email protected]
Hope we’ll catch up with everything and release open beta during this month.
Hello @maju,
You posted to us in November that you experienced delays with your grant project and have not received additional information from you this month regarding progress on your previously posted goals. Please provide an update soon.

Hi! Sorry for the delay, I had a busy time lately.
Website is ready for open beta, I have opened registration posibility. You can add your hostd node and receive SMS and/or e-mail notification when it dies. It will be pinged via RHP v2/v3.
Bug reports are welcome: [email protected]
Log in using Google: https://sia.watch
At this point I consider the grant to be finished. Interest seems to be low, nobody signed up for closed alpha… I will try to make extra monitoring app production-ready (packaged with installer etc) on the best-effort basis, but if there will be less than 10 people using the app I consider adding extra features like HDD temperatures/SMART status pointless.
I can’t guarantee website is bug free, since noone besides me participated in closed alpha. If any bugs arise, I will surely fix them (if reported via email I given above).
Cheers!
Hi @maju, I tried accessing and after logging in with my google account, get a success message then a server unavailable message. I can see a 401 on /api/user/me but you said registration should be open?
Hi,
If I understand logs correctly, you are using Chrome. I tested page using Chromium on my PC and it worked fine. I will try to debug it, however could you tell me if it works when you use Firefox?
EDIT: I think the bug has been fixed. It should now work on Chrome too.
Cheers!
Yes I can access the host setup now. I might recommend some tooltips or grey’ed out examples in the fields to assist with the setup. How should the all fields be defined? What is extramon?
Good point. We’ll add them, but after Christmas. For now there’s some hints on how to set it up:
I’m not quite sure, but I think that the Sia logo is discouraged from being used directly in 3rd-party projects:
This is screenshot from Sia hostd app, not from my website. It is showing where to find values needed for setting up host on my website. Sia logo is not used on my website anywhere.
I’ve emailed as it’s not working as expected.
Just a suggestion, but you might want to add login with email (with verification process) rather than just google. Not everyone has or wants a google account.
That’s deliberate decision to delegate log-in process to 3rd party. I really don’t want to deal with it. You can suggest another 3rd party if you want. Github seems to be fairly popular in tech community, but if you have Github then you probably have Gmail too.
@tizzputt’s issue regarding bad reported status in GUI has been resolved
Hi all, for last two weeks there has been an information on the main website telling everyone that due to lack of interest project will be shutting down on 15th Feb 2024. However I still hoped a new mainteiner will pop up and take over the project. If there is such person there - message me at [email protected] as VPS servers will be up for a few more days.
On 28th Feb 2024 the service will be definitely shut down and there will be significant overhead to setting it up again.
I am quite sad events turned out this way, but I see no reason to keep the service up for 3 people. GitHub repo is still up, I may add documentation on how to set it up if anyone wants to resurrect the service on their own.
I find it sad indeed that you have to bring the service down.
However, if I were you, I would make up a comprehensive guide for my eventual successors, just because I wouldn’t want my work to go in vain.
