Hi. I was trying out the uptime monitoring and set up some WAF and edge rules to let it see the site recently. It had previously been blocked. It shows a bunch of successes, but the overall site shows as down. What am I doing wrong?

I am very new to Sentry, BTW.

I was just being impatient. It seems all good now.

Hey Dan, welcome to Sentry!

https://docs.sentry.io/product/monitors-and-alerts/monitors/uptime-monitoring/
jusssst cropped off to the right there is the Recovery tolerance config setting. Is that currently set to 1? Or something higher?

Hi. Thanks for the welcome! That error is back. These are the settings. Should I change them?

OK, I think I understand now. The issue listed showing downtime is not really showing a current downtime. It is showing issues related to the monitor, even if resolved. Is that right?
