Auto-Scanner

Expirly automatically monitors SSL certificates and domain registrations for all items with a domain on file.

How it works

1. Create an item with the category SSL or DOMAIN and enter a domain
2. Expirly immediately performs an initial scan
3. A cron job checks all automatically monitored items every hour
4. The status is updated automatically: OK → WARNING → CRITICAL → EXPIRED

Scans performed

• SSL Check – Connects on port 443, reads the certificate expiration date
• WHOIS Check – Queries WHOIS data for the domain registration period
• DNS Check – Validates DNS resolution and detects common issues
