Heartbeats for Pushover

Please consider adding heartbeat functionality for Teams accounts.

This would, IMHO bring you up the next level of robustness needed for some businesss.

Simply you provide a 'heartbeat' url, which your customer polls every say, one minute, if the url has not been accessed in five minutes, a message or SMS is sent warning the user the heartbeat has expired, and their monitoring system may be down.

This feature is now available for Pushover for Teams members.  Please contact us to try it out before general release.

Notification when an expected Pushover message is missing - a heartbeat monitor.

I am using Pushover with a Raspberry Pi that controls an irrigation system. I get a notification when one of the zones is active as a way to verify that the system is operating. When I notice no messages, then I need to check on the Raspberry Pi and reboot. The flaw is having me be the watchdog and notice when the messages stop. 

What I really need is a monitor on the Pushover messages that alerts me when one hasn't been received for a certain number of hours. A heartbeat monitor. 

Please give this some consideration. 

Thanks

Tim
