How it connects
What you need
- Monitoring token (NC-Token)The serverinfo token set with occ. It opens Nextcloud's statistics and nothing else.
Network ports to open
443/TCPAPI (HTTPS, default)80/TCPOnly with the http scheme option
Setup steps: Create a monitoring token in Nextcloud
On the Nextcloud server, set a random token with occ as the web server user (in Docker: docker exec -u www-data, then the container name).
php occ config:app:set serverinfo token --value "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" php occ config:app:get serverinfo tokenIf occ says serverinfo is disabled, enable the Monitoring app: profile menu → Apps → Monitoring → Enable.
In DumbMonit, enter the address you open Nextcloud with and paste the token.
Heads-up. Use an address listed in Nextcloud's trusted domains, or Nextcloud refuses the request.
