Send a Pushover push notification for each new Pulsetic monitor event
Every new monitor event from Pulsetic sends a Pushover notification to your subscribed devices, so the person on call sees what happened to a monitored site on their phone.

What this workflow does
Uptime monitoring only helps if someone sees the alert. Email can sit unread, and not everyone keeps a monitoring dashboard open. Pushover puts a notification on your phone or desktop, and this workflow sends one for each event Pulsetic reports.
The Pulsetic trigger fires when a new monitor event occurs, and the event's details come into FlowMattic. The Pushover step then sends a notification to the devices subscribed to your Pushover account. You write the message from the event data, for example the monitor name and what changed.
All monitor events start a run as imported, so you get a notification for each one Pulsetic reports. If that is more than you want, add a Filter on the event details after a test run shows which values Pulsetic sends. Task History records every event received and the response from Pushover.
On-call alerts for a small agency
An agency watches its clients' sites in Pulsetic, and whoever is on call gets each monitor event on their phone through Pushover.
Solo site owner
You run a shop and a blog. Pulsetic watches both, and Pushover tells you when something happens to either, even away from your desk.
Checking a fix after an outage
After a hosting problem, the team keeps an eye on the Pushover notifications to see whether Pulsetic reports more events for that site.

What you need
- FlowMatticCore
- Pulsetic AccountAccount
- Pushover AccountAccount
After importing, map your own data. To keep the template universal, not every step is pre-filled. Open each step in the builder and connect your accounts and fields (channels, lists, sheets, recipients) before you switch the workflow on.
Make it yours
Changes worth making after you import it.
- Put the monitor name and the event details at the start of the message, so the notification on a lock screen says which site it is about.
- Add a Filter after the Pulsetic trigger once a test run shows the event fields, so only the kinds of events you care about reach Pushover.
- Add a Google Sheets Add New Row step after Pushover to keep a running log of monitor events alongside the notifications.
Questions about this workflow
Which Pulsetic events send a Pushover notification?
Every new monitor event Pulsetic reports starts a run as imported. To narrow it to certain kinds of event, place a Filter right after the Pulsetic step.
Who receives the Pushover alert?
The devices subscribed to the Pushover account you connect in the step. Install the Pushover app on each phone or computer that should get it.
Do I need accounts with both Pulsetic and Pushover?
Yes. Pulsetic supplies the monitor events and Pushover delivers the notification. You connect both after importing the workflow.
