Get by slug about healthchecks HOT 3 CLOSED

Slugs are not guaranteed to be unique, so a "get by slug" call could have 0, 1 or N matches.

The "List Existing Checks" API call currently supports filtering by tag:

https://healthchecks.io/api/v3/checks/?tag=foo&tag=bar

We could add an option to filter by slug as well:

https://healthchecks.io/api/v3/checks/?slug=my-custom-slug

Would that help?

Just saw that the auto-provisioning is now enabled which is nice as well

Yep! But, note, this change has not yet been deployed to the hosted service.

The slug is unique per project though, right?

I opened a pull request with an example, feel free to have a look at it and push it in if you want, I'm gonna try it out locally on our instance since it saves us a couple of requests for some of our checks.

No, there is no uniqueness constraint for slugs even within a single project. Multiple checks can have the same slug, and a check can have an empty slug.

I just pushed a commit which adds filtering by slug to the "List Checks" call:

http://healthchecks.io/api/v3/checks/?slug=foo
