#Windows Server 2022 is now the minimum for new private location installations

The Windows Server 2019 installation package is no longer available on the private location installation page. Windows Server 2022 is now the minimum supported Windows Server version for new private location installations.

Existing private locations running on Windows Server 2019 remain supported, and updated container images will continue to be available. For new installations, we recommend using Windows Server 2025 or Linux. If you need to install a new private location on Windows Server 2019, contact Uptrends Support.

#Support for the HTTP QUERY method for multi-step API and HTTPS monitors

Multi-step API and HTTPS monitors now support the HTTP QUERY method, allowing you to send complex, structured, or long query parameters in the request body that exceed URI length limits.

Use QUERY for health checks or uptime checks of endpoints that expect query parameters, to verify APIs and routing behavior that depend on query content, or for simple, safe, and idempotent checks.

Each request must include a Content-Type header that describes the query format.
