Login to Uptime Robot and go to “My Settings” page

Enter a “Friendly Name” and the “Pushbullet API Key” and create the alert contact.
Attach this new alert contact to the monitors you prefer from the “edit monitor” dialog of each monitor.

That easy.

Wow, great!
Finally, I am waiting to get some kind of notification on my Android and this is exactly what I need!

I just started using your site and seen you support PushBullet. Any chance of supporting PushOver (https://pushover.net/)?

We actually would love to add Pushover support. However, Pushover has limits in API usage which prevents us from adding it. Sorry for that.

I also prefer Pushover and I use it for everything. It is super reliable and the API is good. What limitation are you running into?

FYI - UptimeRobot, PushOver, LastPass, SetCronJob and Authy are my top recommended sites/apps/tools for my IT co-workers.

There is a request limit in Pushover API where further usage is priced. Otherwise, it looks great.

That's unfortunate as I also use Pushover in preference to Pushbullet, it's much more configurable. However Pushbullet comes a close second!

Recommend support for as many endpoints as possible. NMA is no exception! Thanks for a great service!

Hi,
i copied the API key (Pushbullet > Account Settings > Access Token), but i don't get a push notificiation in the browser or on my smartphone.
Can you help me?

Ok, after resetting the API key, it works!
