Migration Guide

Migrate from Cronitor

API import available. Get execution, monitoring, AI diagnostics, and escalation policies.

One-click import available

Step by step

1

Get your Cronitor API key

Log into cronitor.io → Settings → API Keys. Copy your key.

Your key looks like: abc123...
2

Export your monitors

Use the Cronitor API to list all monitors.

curl -u YOUR_API_KEY: https://cronitor.io/api/v3/monitors
3

Import to JustRun

Go to justrun.sh/dashboard/migrate → Cronitor. Paste your API key and click Import. JustRun maps each monitor's schedule and URL to a job.

4

Set up escalation policies

Use JustRun's Escalation Wizard to configure multi-phase alerts: first notify Slack, then page via PagerDuty after 5 minutes.

5

Review and activate

Verify all jobs imported correctly, then disable Cronitor monitors for the migrated jobs.

Common questions

Does Cronitor execute jobs or just monitor?

Cronitor monitors heartbeats — your server must run the job and check in. JustRun executes the job itself, so you don't need server-side cron.

What about Cronitor's telemetry/heartbeat endpoints?

JustRun doesn't need heartbeats — it executes and tracks each HTTP call. Remove the cronitor.io ping URLs from your application code.

Can I keep using Cronitor for Laravel integration?

Yes — run both in parallel during migration. Once you've moved all monitors to JustRun, cancel your Cronitor subscription.
