# Migrating from StatusCake to Lemwatch

> StatusCake exposes both halves of a migration through its public API: GET /v1/uptime lists every uptime test on the account, and GET /v1/uptime/{test_id}/history returns that test's recorded history.

## Exporting your monitors

 Call GET /v1/uptime (ListUptimeTests) against the StatusCake API with a bearer token. The same call is what StatusCake's own Go client library wraps, so the field names you get back match their documented schema exactly.

## Exporting your history

 GET /v1/uptime/{test_id}/history (ListUptimeTestHistory) returns per-test history. There is no documented CSV endpoint, so you loop the test IDs from the list call and store the JSON yourself.

## Things that catch people out

- History is per test, not per account — you make one history call per uptime test, which matters if you are running dozens and hit rate limits mid-export.
- StatusCake does not publish a data-retention or post-cancellation policy page we could verify on 4 August 2026, so assume history disappears when the account closes and export first.
- Test IDs are StatusCake-internal, so keep the exported JSON as your mapping record if you need to reconcile old incidents against the new tool later.
