How can I import the list of URLs for monitoring?

Learn how to import a list of URLs and create multiple monitors at once using the same monitoring criteria. This saves time and ensures consistency across all monitored pages.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

ChangeTower allows you to bulk-create monitors by importing a list of URLs instead of creating them one by one. All imported monitors can share the same settings, criteria, and notification options.

Step 1: Start creating a new monitor

In the left navigation menu, click on New Monitor, then select the option to Monitor Multiple Pages.

Step 2: Add your list of URLs

In the modal, enter the URLs you want to monitor:

  • Add one URL per line, or

  • Click Import from Spreadsheet to upload a file

You can use the provided template or upload your own spreadsheet.

Step 3: Proceed to monitoring setup

Once your URLs are added, continue to the next step to configure monitoring settings.

Step 4: Review and adjust imported URLs

You’ll see the list of URLs you imported. You can add more URLs if needed or remove any that don’t belong.

Step 5: Configure monitoring criteria

Customize how ChangeTower monitors these pages by

  • Adjusting the monitoring threshold

  • Selecting the monitor type / check type, such as:

    • Content change monitoring (default)

    • Keyword change monitoring

    • Smart Monitor (AI-powered monitoring)

All selected criteria will apply to every URL in the list.

Step 6: Customize monitor details

In the details section, you can:

  • Add tags to your monitors

  • Enable or disable email alerts

  • Set the monitoring frequency

  • Choose notification behavior (notify only on changes or always notify)

Step 7: Save and import monitors

Click Save to begin importing your monitors. ChangeTower will create the monitors in bulk, and you’ll receive an email once the import is complete.
