# Changelog

New features, improvements, and fixes.

## November 2026

- new24 check locations in 12 areas for HTTP and keyword monitors, with a new US Central area (Dallas, Chicago) and new cities in Montréal, Milan and Delhi.
- newPick the areas that check each monitor: 6 areas on Pro, all 12 on Team and Business. You can also run a monitor on Cloudflare cities only, with no core probe.
- improvedNew alert rule for monitors with extra areas: several areas must fail before you get an alert. How it works: /docs/check-locations.

## October 11, 2026

- new22 check locations on six continents for HTTP and keyword monitors: Europe, North and South America, Asia, Australia and Africa. Pro picks 12 locations; Team and Business use all 22. Several locations must confirm a failure before you get an alert. Update, November 2026: HTTP and keyword monitors now check from 24 locations in 12 areas, and Pro picks 6 areas.
- improvedFailures caused by bot protection now say so, e.g. "blocked by bot protection (Cloudflare challenge)", instead of only "HTTP 403".

## September 28, 2026

- newDomain expiry monitors — RDAP lookup with a WHOIS fallback for TLDs without RDAP. Alerts a set number of days before the domain expires (default 30).
- newDNS record change monitors — alert when the resolved A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, NS, or PTR record set changes, with the added and removed records listed.
- newDNS blocklist monitors — check a host's IPv4 address against DNSBL zones such as SpamCop and Barracuda. Spamhaus may not answer these lookups.
- newSitemap monitors — fetch sitemap.xml and check a sample of up to 50 listed URLs for 4xx/5xx responses on each run.

## June 14, 2026

- newAI-authored browser checks — paste a URL and AI drafts a Playwright script you can review, edit, and run. Now free for any signed-in account.
- newPing (ICMP) monitors — check that a host is reachable, from every region. Available in the monitor type dropdown.
- newMonitors-as-code CLI — the uptrack CLI is now a single static binary: define monitors in YAML and apply them from CI. Install with one command; see the guide at /guides/monitoring-as-code.
- newSwitch-from-Pingdom guide — export your Pingdom checks to CSV and bulk-import them at /guides/switch-from-pingdom.
- fixedHTTP "Test now" runs a real server-side HTTP check (status + response time) instead of the browser probe; clearer rate-limit messages.
