# Amazon Monitor Tasks/Global Monitoring

## Overview&#x20;

To enable Local or Global Monitoring, click on **"Advanced / Global Monitor"** in the top-right section of the task creator. Local Monitor Tasks can be run on lower-quality proxies. Meanwhile, **Checkout Tasks** wait for **Monitor Tasks** to detect stock; once detected, your **Checkout Tasks** are triggered. Both **Local Monitor Tasks** and **Checkout Tasks** are essential for this setup.

* You can attach multiple monitor tasks or groups to your checkout task, but if you’re monitoring multiple items or SKUs, the task can only check out one item at a time.

## Local Monitor&#x20;

This option uses your own proxies and resources to monitor products. This allows you to monitor any product you wish.

* We recommend using the Offer ID input when possible.
* It's a good practice to use a higher ratio of proxies than tasks. We also recommend using separate proxy pools for checking out and monitoring, especially when running a low task-to-proxy ratio.
* When running restocks for competitive/hard-to-get items, we highly recommend running multiple Local monitor tasks for at different delay intervals.

**Example:**&#x20;

**Monitor Task 1** - `4000 MS` \
**Monitor Task 2** -`5000 MS`\
**Monitor Task 3** - `6000  MS`\
**Monitor Task 4** - `7000 MS`

## Global Monitoring

### **Introduction**

Hayha features Global Monitoring, also known as Server-Side monitoring. This means that Hayha will handle the monitoring portion of your tasks for Amazon. You won’t need your own proxies to monitor items.

Proxies are still required to checkout once your Amazon Global Sniper/Server-Side task does pick up stock or a restock.

Only select items/SKUs are being monitored on Server-Side; a list of items that are being monitored on Server-Side will not be provided usually. If the item isn’t supported on the Server-Side list it will not work. We highly recommend using Local Monitor in combination of Global Monitor tasks.
