## Alive

 - [POST /alive](https://developer.egym.com/mms-api-v2/gymapi/api/alive/paths/~1alive/post.md): Notification that the API client is active.
This method notifies EGYM that the API client is running. Any received POST method resets a timestamp when data was last received. This method allows to send regular pings and therefore refreshes the timestamp.
Gym Owners are shown a connectivity status on the EGYM website that is changed to inactive if no request is received by any method for 24h - therefore best practice would be to send this request at least once per day.
