Error handling

While this route does not require authentication, transient network issues or platform outages may still occur. In those cases, you can expect standard HTTP error codes (5xx series). Retry logic with exponential backoff is recommended for automated monitors.

Recommended usage

1. Health checks: Schedule periodic calls to / from your infrastructure monitors (e.g., Pingdom, Datadog) to track availability.
2. Pre-flight validations: Invoke this endpoint before making high-cost operations to ensure the API is reachable.
