HTTP Get Request Check

The HTTP check can be configured to send a GET / POST / PUT / DELETE / PATCH request to a specified URL, looking for a certain specific status code's response. This check reports a success upon receiving a response with the status code matching with the expected status code (like 200 or 204, etc.) and a failure on any other status code.

You can specify the URL to check with the CHECK_URL environment variable in the .yaml file.

The check will exit without sending a request if the specified URL is not prefixed with an HTTP or HTTPS protocol.
