Monitor App that is a Container with no URL

Here is what I'm trying to accomplish. I have a container stack that I created in Portainer that has two containers: one for Wordpress and one for MySQL. I have added the Wordpress container as an app and it works fine. I get the green dot because it can reach the URL of Wordpress. However, how can I set up an App for the MySQL container? It does not have any URLs or ports configured because it only talks to the Wordpress container in the same stack. I'd like to have an app so I can see at a glance in Homarr that the MySQL container is running without having to look through the list in the Docker monitor. I tried modifying the stack to expose the MySQL ports outside the container, but that did not work because the container does not respond to http requests on that port; it's just for database connections. I have a couple other stacks that have containers that I don't know how I'm going to add as well (like flaresolverr in my arr stack, or my cloudflared container that establishes my tunnel to CloudFlare). Thank you!

That is currently not possible. We plan to add support for Uptime Kuma where you can monitor TCP connection, containers and much more. At the moment, apps are essentially just http(-s) links

Gotcha, thank you for the response. I REALLY like this app; being able to just drag stuff around where you want it is great. I look forward to this enhancement!
