#Easily convert Uptime monitors into API monitors on the API hub

The API hub now includes a feature that automatically scans your existing monitors and identifies those that can be converted into API monitors. If it detects any HTTP or HTTPS monitors that appear to check an API endpoint, it will offer the option to automatically create a new API monitor for you.

This functionality instantly upgrades any Uptime monitor into a fully configured API monitor without deleting or modifying the original monitor. You can freely undo the action at any time if needed. Also, there’s no need to manually recreate everything from scratch, Uptrends handles all the setup, replicating the same settings from your existing monitors.

Once converted, you can review the configuration and enable it for use. For more information, refer to the Multi-step API hub knowledge base article.

#Support for specific HTTP versions is now available in the Multi-step API (MSA) monitor steps

It is now possible to specify the HTTP version for each step of an MSA monitor. This lets you control which HTTP version the checkpoint servers use when making requests:

By default, the HTTP version option is unchecked, meaning the server will automatically use the highest supported HTTP version available, with a fallback back no lower than HTTP/1.1. Currently, HTTP/3 is available at selected checkpoint locations, and support will soon be expanded to additional locations.

On a similar note, the HTTP configuration allows you to select only one version, while the TLS configuration supports selecting multiple versions. This is because TLS supports version negotiation during the connection process, whereas HTTP/3 does not and requires a specific version to be defined.

#Maintenance periods can now be filtered

Maintenance periods can now be easily filtered by type using the dropdown menu, with options such as All periods, One time periods, or Recurring periods. You can also filter them by description using the search bar for easier access.

#Integrations can now be filtered

The Integrations overview page now includes a filter function for users with multiple integrations. This allows you to easily manage and search for specific integrations by name.

#API user overview updates

The API user overview now shows the number of requests for each API user over the last 30 days. This lets you identify which API users are active and which APIs are frequently used.
