Test data for monitors

View as Markdown

By default, a monitor runs its collection once per monitor run with the same data. You can provide test data to run the collection multiple times within a single run, each time with a different set of values. This enables you to validate multiple scenarios and inputs in one monitor run.

  • Use a data file with a monitor — Start with a CSV or JSON you attach and run, for a small, fixed set of values you don’t need to reuse. Each row becomes one iteration.
  • Use a dataset with a monitor — The next step when you need more: reusable or live data, SQL queries, connections to live databases, and no file size limits.
