status = 200
description = '''Returns list of existing monitors.

<br>
The status attribute can have one of the following values:
<br>
`paused` - the monitor was paused
<br>
`pending` - the monitor was just created and it's waiting for the first check
<br>
`maintenance` - the monitor is paused because it is currently in its maintenance period
<br>
`up` - checks are passing
<br>
`validating` - service seems to be back up, but the recovery_period since the last failed check still hasn't passed
<br>
`down` - checks are failing

<br>

If an escalation policy is set (policy_id) then the simple escalation policy settings (call, sms, email, push) are ignored.'''
