Status pages
A public web page that shows the live status and uptime of the monitors you choose — so customers and teammates can see what's up without messaging you to ask.
What is a status page?
A status page is a public web page that shows the live status and uptime of the monitors you choose. It’s how you keep customers and teammates informed without fielding “is it down?” messages during an incident.
Want to see one before you build your own? There’s a live example at /status/demo.
Create a status page
- 1
Open Status pages
From the dashboard, go to Status pages.
- 2
Name it and pick a slug
Give the page a name, and pick a slug — a short word or two that becomes part of its web address. Once saved, the page is published at
/status/your-slug. - 3
Add the monitors you want to show
Pick which of your monitors appear on the page, and arrange the order they show in — more on that below.
Choose and arrange monitors
You decide which of your monitors appear on the page — the rest stay private. You also choose the order they appear in, so you can group and prioritise them the way you want.
Each monitor is shown using the friendly name you gave it when you created it.
Tip
That name is what visitors see, so keep internal details out of the names of any monitors you plan to publish. If a name like prod-api-eu-west-1 is too revealing, rename the monitor to something friendly like API — that name is used on your dashboard and the status page alike.
Branding
Make the page look like yours:
- Description — a short blurb shown on the page to give visitors context.
- Logo — added by URL, so your brand mark sits at the top of the page.
- Header colour — sets the page’s header tone. It defaults to a dark navy (
#0E1422) and you can change it to match your brand.
Visibility
Every status page has a visibility switch. While a page is public — the default — anyone with its link can open it. Turn visibility off and the page goes offline: visitors get a “not found” page until you switch it back on.
Note
A public status page has no login — anyone with the link can read it. Only list services you’re happy to show the world, and switch the page off if you ever need to take it down quickly.
What visitors see
For each monitor you list, the page shows its current status and the last 90 days of uptime as a row of daily bars, plus a feed of recent incidents. During an outage your users can see exactly what’s affected — without opening a ticket. Status pages pair naturally with incidents, which capture when an outage started and how long it lasted.
