HI @aiqbal88,

That's a good question. In 5.7.x, we have a built-in JSON wizard which makes setting up checks from REST API endpoints easy to setup.

The challenge is then what metrics do you need to monitor and are they available in the API. Below are a few links I've found to help to get you started.
