Monitoring

Can I change an HTTP monitor into a TCP monitor?

Protocol is chosen when the monitor is created.

No. A monitor’s kind is fixed when added. Create a new TCP or UDP monitor on Premium to watch a public port.

Port monitors do not use HTTP request headers, certificate settings, or response keywords. Their history belongs to the new monitor rather than continuing the HTTP history.
