Update Website
hudu_update_websiteIdempotent
Update an existing website monitor in Hudu to change its URL, notes, pause status, company association, or disable specific checks like DNS, SSL, and WHOIS.
Instructions
Update an existing website. A website in Hudu is a live monitor, not a documentation page: Hudu polls the host on a schedule and records its uptime, TLS certificate expiry, WHOIS registration and DNS records against the owning company.
Only the fields you supply are sent. Be aware that Hudu applies these as a PUT: for fields you do send, the new value replaces the old one outright — read the record first with hudu_get_website if you intend to append rather than overwrite.
Operation class: Update. Impact: Overwrites the supplied fields on this website.
Input Schema
TableJSON Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | Yes | Numeric Hudu id of the website. | |
| name | No | The site to monitor, written as its URL — "https://portal.contoso.com". This doubles as the display name of the record, so Hudu shows whatever you send here in lists. | |
| notes | No | Free-text notes shown on the website record, e.g. who owns the domain renewal. | |
| paused | No | true suspends monitoring of this host entirely — no uptime, TLS, WHOIS or DNS checks run and no alerts fire — while keeping the record and its history. This is the right setting for a planned outage or a decommissioning in progress; deleting the record throws away the history as well. | |
| company_id | No | Numeric id of the company this monitor belongs to, so its results appear on that company's page. Resolve a customer name to an id with hudu_list_companies first. The list endpoint has no company filter, so a website that is filed under the wrong company is awkward to find again. | |
| disable_dns | No | true stops DNS record monitoring, so Hudu no longer snapshots the domain's records or reports when they change. Uptime checking continues. | |
| disable_ssl | No | true stops TLS certificate monitoring, so Hudu no longer tracks the host's certificate or warns before it expires. Uptime checking continues. Set this for hosts served over plain HTTP or behind a certificate Hudu cannot validate, where the check would only produce noise. | |
| disable_whois | No | true stops WHOIS monitoring, so Hudu no longer tracks the domain registration or warns before the domain expires. Uptime checking continues. Set this for hosts on a domain the customer does not own, or on a TLD whose registry does not answer WHOIS. |
