Global Monitor / Automation

Getting Started

Please review the following guides before proceeding: Footsites Guide (Click Here) Monitors Guide (Click Here) Captcha Guide (Click Here)

Setting Up Monitor Tasks

1. First head over to the "Monitors" tab in-bot.

2. Next create a group or select the desired group and select "New Monitor".

3. Once you're in the Monitor task creator select the drop down "Site" and choose "Footsites - Online Release".

4. Next input the desired SKUs you want to checkout and select "SKU" as the Input Format. The SKU can be found at the end of the link.

Example

Using this link as an example the SKU in this case is at the end of the link which is "6910010" https://www.footlocker.com/product/nike-6-pack-cushioned-crew-socks-boys-grade-school/6910010.html

You can input multiple SKUs into one monitor task separated by commas and the bot will make a monitor task for each SKU once you create the monitor tasks.

Example: Q7670111, 14571164, 22992011

4. Choosing the source of the monitor.

We recommend using a both Frontend and Backend Sources for the best results.

5. Lastly we will need decide on Signal Strength and Runtime (Seconds).

"Signal Strength" is the percentage of tasks triggered when the monitor picks up.

For instance if you had 100 checkout tasks and set the Signal Strength to 75 only 75 out of the 100 checkout tasks will be triggered. If you select 100 all 100 checkout tasks will be triggered/attempt to checkout.

There is no set Runtime everyone should use it's all up to personal preference. However keep in mind Footsites will usually restock in waves. We'd recommend running for at least 10 minutes. Be mindful of how many tasks you will be running and how much residential proxy data those tasks will use.

600 = 10 Minutes of runtime.

1200 = 20 Minutes of runtime.

Creating Checkout Tasks & Assigning Monitor Tasks.

1. Head over to the "Tasks" tab in bot and make/choose the group for your tasks. Then select "New Tasks"

2. Select the recommended settings for Footsites and then select "Advanced / Global Monitor". No product input necessary when creaking checkout tasks that will use monitors.

3. Next we will enable the option "Enable Monitor Feed" and select our monitor Groups/Specifc tasks.

You can assign multiple monitor groups or specific monitor tasks to a checkout task.

Once select the desired monitor groups/tasks you can select "Add Tasks" and Start!

4. Once you start tasks you should get the status "Waiting for Monitor Pickup". Once the moinitor detects a restock your tasks will attempt to checkout for the Runtime selected on the monitor tasks. Once finished you have succesfully setup Footsites Global Monitor / Automation.

Footsite tasks on "Waiting for Monitor Pickup" will not use any data until a restock is detected.
