+# UptimeRobot Integration
+
+## Configuration
+
+Both configuration properties must be set to enable the integration:
+
+```properties
+uptime_robot_status_page_url=https://status.cbioportal.org
+uptime_robot_api_key=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE
+```
+
+Add these to your `application.properties` file.
+
+### Getting Your UptimeRobot API Key
+
+1. Log in to your [UptimeRobot account](https://uptimerobot.com/)
+2. Navigate to "Status Pages"
+3. Open your status page settings
+4. Look for the "Event Feed" or "API" section
+5. Copy the API key (e.g., `RlrzpsmAn`)
+6. Note your status page URL (e.g., `https://status.cbioportal.org`)
+
+### Testing the Configuration
+
+You can test your API endpoint manually:
+
+```bash
+curl https://status.cbioportal.org/api/getEventFeed/YOUR_API_KEY
+```
+
+You should receive a JSON response containing event data.
+
+## Disabling the Integration
+
+To disable the integration, simply remove or comment out both configuration properties:
+
+```properties
+# uptime_robot_status_page_url=https://status.cbioportal.org
+# uptime_robot_api_key=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE
+```
+
+The integration will automatically disable if either property is missing.
