The gap this fills: UptimeRobot doesn't ship an official Discord app. If you want uptime or downtime alert to show up in Discord the moment it happens, the usual options are a paid third-party bot, custom code, or routing everything through a $20–50/month automation platform just to move one webhook from one URL to another. ZestyGlue does exactly that one thing for $9/month.
What it looks like
ZestyGlue
UptimeRobot — Down
api.example.com
https://api.example.com/health
Connection timeout
A real UptimeRobot event, shown as ZestyGlue formats it for Discord.
Setup — about two minutes
- Create the connector. In ZestyGlue, start a new UptimeRobot → Discord connector. You'll get a unique webhook URL right away.
- Point UptimeRobot at it. Go to My Settings → Add Alert Contact → Webhook, choose "Send as JSON", and paste in your ZestyGlue webhook URL.
- Point Discord at ZestyGlue. In your target channel, go to Edit Channel → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook, copy its URL, and paste it into ZestyGlue.
Tip: UptimeRobot sends the same alert type on both the way down and the way back up (Down, then Up) — seeing both in your channel means you always know when an incident actually resolved, not just when it started.

Questions
Does this work with UptimeRobot's free plan?
Yes — webhook alert contacts are available on UptimeRobot's free tier, not just paid plans.
Can I monitor multiple sites with one connector?
Yes — add the same ZestyGlue webhook URL as the alert contact on as many monitors as you like.
Can more than one person see these messages?
Yes — anyone in that Discord channel sees every event as it arrives, exactly like a message from a bot.
What happens if my ZestyGlue subscription lapses?
Events are silently dropped rather than causing errors on UptimeRobot's side — UptimeRobot never sees a failure response, so it won't retry aggressively or flag your webhook as broken. Your dashboard will simply stop showing new events until you resubscribe.
