Prompt
Design a comprehensive Bash script that performs multi-endpoint API health checks, capturing response times, status codes, and payload integrity. The script should support multiple authentication methods (Basic, Bearer, OAuth), log results to a timestamped file, and trigger custom alert mechanisms for critical failures. Include error handling for network disruptions and configurable retry logic. Demonstrate how the script can be integrated into a cron job for continuous monitoring.
