HQU Create HTTP Snippet

Description

This script allows you to create a new HTTP service check for every platform within a group called "All Platforms". Each new check will be an HTTP service, setup to ping the HTTP socket on that platform.

Works With

HQ 3.2.2 or higher

Running

Simply paste this script into the Groovy Console, change the port, path, and any other configuration you like (such as the group's name), and press execute.

Configuration

The best way to see what the valid configuration options are, is to create an HTTP service yourself and look at its properties.

Navigate to any Platform
Tools -> New Platform Service -> HTTP -> Configuration Properties
