Operations

Send an HTTP GET to each configured URL every 15 minutes.

[Use in Open Flow](https://console.openflow.run/flows?importUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Foomol-lab%2Fawesome-workflow-templates%2F5b4ebb0d2fbb329baf98dfe4b5d5ae6331e19984%2Fworkflows%2Fping-configured-urls%2Ftemplates%2Fping-configured-urls.openflow.json)

![Ping Configured URLs workflow in Open Flow](https://openflow.run/_astro/preview-light.Yzcmo_Pr_bG95T.webp)

Send an HTTP GET to each configured URL every 15 minutes.

## Setup

Replace the example list in **Prepare the next URL** with the HTTP or HTTPS URLs to contact. In n8n, edit the array in **URLs List**. Configure only destinations you intend to contact, without embedded credentials. Activate one format.

## Behavior

Every 15 minutes the workflow requests each URL. It follows up to 21 redirects and attempts the remaining URLs after a request error or a non-2xx final response. As in the source, those errors do not by themselves fail the run. An empty list makes no requests. This workflow sends no alert; inspect individual request results to see failures. Each run repeats the requests, and a GET endpoint may itself have side effects.

Open Flow checks URLs sequentially; n8n may issue requests concurrently. Open Flow applies a 30-second timeout per redirect hop and a 4 MiB response limit; exceeding that limit stops the run immediately. Redirect targets must be HTTP or HTTPS without credentials. n8n uses its HTTP node defaults. Both schedules use UTC as a starting point; the source inherited its n8n instance timezone.

## Changes to the source

*   Replace the example domains with a configurable list and validate URLs before use. Explicitly set UTC.
