See [Magic Link](/merge-agent-handler/features/magic-link) for the runtime auth flow. ## Sample use cases * List every check that failed in the last 24 hours and the locations it failed from. * Create an API check that hits `https://api.acme.com/health` every 5 minutes and alerts the on-call Slack channel. * Schedule a maintenance window for Saturday 02:00 to 04:00 UTC covering the checkout check group. ## Available Tools #### get_current_account Retrieve the Checkly account this connection acts on, with its plan and default runtime.
