+You can monitor your application by using a simple HTTP GET to the endpoint to return back a response and status code. Normally you want a 200 status code on an HTTP request. You might want to require a 404 or 500 error as a response code though. With each service you can include a Timeout in seconds to work with your long running services.
 
 # HTTP Endpoints with Custom POST
