Enable HTTP healthcheck on private services
M
Mahmoud Hashemi
Many background workers offer an HTTP healthcheck. Would love see render check 200 vs 500 on these instead of just relying on TCP connectivity, as the current behavior.
Two existing requests I found on this issue:
- https://community.render.com/t/health-endpoint-for-private-services/3526
- https://community.render.com/t/add-health-checks-to-private-and-workers/18556/2
Per Keith, the TCP healthcheck can stay the default (like webservices), and HTTP checks are only enabled if the blueprint author has added the path.

I'd really like a way to monitor the health of my workers and private servers too. One of my processes keeps locking up, and it would be great if Render could detect this and restart the service. I can very easily add a HTTP health check endpoint to my services, so it was frustrating to find that the healthCheckPath property is not supported for pserv services.
