# Monitors Service

> Monitors Service API methods in the Galtea SDK

The Monitors Service in the Galtea SDK allows you to manage [monitors](/concepts/product/monitor) for your products.
This Service is exposed by the `galtea.monitors` object.

<Info>
  Remember that we will be using the `galtea` object. More information [here](/sdk/api/galtea).
</Info>

## Quick Example

First, initialize the Galtea SDK:

```python theme={"system"}
galtea = Galtea(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
```

Create a monitor:

```python theme={"system"}
monitor = galtea.monitors.create(
    name="Production quality monitor",
    product_id=product_id,
    metric_group_ids=[metric_group_id],
    # Optional: watch a single version. Omit to watch every version of the product.
    # version_id="your-version-id",
    sampling_percentage=10,  # score 10% of production sessions (default)
    monthly_credit_cap=5000,  # stop scoring after 5000 credits this month; None means uncapped
    inactivity_window_minutes=5,  # a session is scored 5 minutes after its last activity (default)
)
```

List monitors:

```python theme={"system"}
monitors = galtea.monitors.list(
    product_ids=[product_id],
    statuses=["ACTIVE"],
)
```
