📝 Describe your problem

I'm trying to intergrate uptime kuma api with something else but i just could not figure it out since i'm coding in python and can't quite figure out how to turn my python app into a Prometheus compatible code. Would anyone mind helping make the api easier to use? like https://<uptimekumaurl>:<uptimekumaport>/api/monitors then it will return a json list of monitors same with create delete and pause/resume monitors or something like that

Just to be sure: have you looked at https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma/wiki/Prometheus-Integration ?

like https://<uptimekumaurl>:<uptimekumaport>/api/monitors then it will return a json list of monitors same with create delete and pause/resume monitors or something like that

Currently, we don't offer an api. See #118 for further details.
The current attempt at adding such a functionality is https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma/pull/3854 and might be merged into v2.1 if all goes well.

You can find external tooling which does wrap around our internal web socket endpoints, see https://uptime-kuma-api.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
