Supported Tools
list_probes
List Probes
List all currently online Globalping probes with their location and network metadata. Optionally filter results by country, continent, city, ASN, network name, or tags to find probes in specific locations.
Returns probe details including geographic location, network information, and tags for targeted testing.
check_health
Check API Health
Validate the Globalping API's health and availability. Returns whether the API is reachable and responding correctly.
Useful for verifying connectivity before running critical network tests or as part of automation health checks.
get_limits
Get Rate Limits
Retrieve the current rate limit status for your account or IP address. Shows remaining measurement quota, rate limit type, and credits balance (for authenticated users).
Useful for checking how many tests you can still run before hitting the hourly limit.
run_measurement
Run Measurement
Create and run a network diagnostic test from globally distributed probes, then poll for and return its results. Supports **ping**, **traceroute**, **dns**, **mtr**, and **http** measurement types.
Use location filters to target specific geographic regions, networks, or cloud providers. By default, the tool waits up to about 40 seconds for completion and returns the current status. If it remains in progress, retrieve it later with Get Measurement.
get_measurement
Get Measurement
Retrieve the status and results of a previously created network measurement by its ID. Use this to check on measurements created with "Run Measurement" when `waitForResults` was set to false, or to re-fetch results of any measurement within its availability window.

Run Globalping through the Metorial gateway
One governed layer for every app your agents reach, not a separate connector per tool.
Give Globalping and every other app to your whole team through one MCP gateway, behind your SSO.
Scope which teams and agents can use Globalping tools with role-based access control, and trace every call.
Prefer to run it yourself? Metorial is open source and self-hostable.
Run network diagnostic measurements from globally distributed probes. Create ping, traceroute, DNS, MTR, and HTTP tests targeting any public domain or IP address. Select probe locations by country, continent, city, US state, region, ASN, ISP, or cloud region. Retrieve measurement results by polling with a measurement ID. List and filter available online probes by location or network. Check API health and availability. Useful for monitoring latency, debugging routing issues, optimizing anycast networks, and detecting censorship across different geographies.
