Edit a task
Change what a task watches, how often it runs or where its alerts go. The task keeps its history.
Open the task editor
There are two ways in:
- In Tasks, click the pencil (Edit task) at the end of the task’s row.
- Click anywhere else on the row to open the task panel, then click Edit.
Make your changes
The editor shows the page on the left and the task’s settings on the right. The arrow at the top left takes you back to Tasks. Settings are grouped into tabs:
| Tab | What you change there |
|---|---|
| Settings | Task name, the Notify me when rule, frequency, monitoring mode and skills (plus the threshold for Visual, the selector for Element, keywords for Text). |
| Automations | Steps to run before each check, such as clicking a button or filling a form. |
| Schedule | Days and time windows when the task may run. |
| Channels | Email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Telegram, Google Sheets and webhooks, plus push notifications once you use the mobile app. |
| Advanced | Proxy, saved login (device), forced baseline, HTTP headers, cookies, ad blocking and labels. |
To choose what part of the page to watch, hover the preview and use Focus here; see Element mode. You can also describe the change in plain words to Monity AI: click Ask Monity in the header while the task is open and write, for example, “check this every hour” or “only alert me about the Business plan”. It shows the change in a Confirm card before it saves it.
Save
Click Update task. The next check after you save is recorded as the task’s new starting point, so changing the settings never sends an alert by itself. Checks after that are compared with it as usual.
Edit the address above the preview and click Load (or Reload) to see the new page, then Update task. Checks of the old address stay in the task’s history.
