A status page is a public web page that shows the uptime of the monitors you pick: live status, 30 days of daily bars, uptime percentages, response time, certificate expiry and recent incidents. Send the link to a client or put it in your site's footer. Visitors can only look; they can't change anything.
Make one
- Open Website uptime and click Status pages.
- Click New status page.
- Unique name: lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens, like
acme-production. It becomes the end of the page's address, and no two pages in your account can share it. - Uptime checks: tick the monitors to show. You can pick from every project in your account; tick a project's name to take all its monitors.
- Password protected (optional): tick it and type a password of at least 6 characters. Visitors enter it once per browser.
- Branding (optional): a heading, a short description under it, and footer text such as a support email.
- Click Create page, then copy the link from the list.
The address is:
https://<your panel>/<Account ID>/uptime-status/<unique name>
The Account ID is your account's 12-digit ID, shown in Settings.
What visitors see
- An overall banner: All systems operational, Partial outage or Major outage. Paused monitors don't count.
- For each monitor: its name and status, one bar per day for 30 days (green, yellow, orange or red by that day's uptime, grey for no checks), uptime for the last 24 hours, 7 days and 30 days, average response time with a 24-hour line, days until the SSL certificate expires, and when it was last checked.
- Incidents from the last 30 days: which monitor, the plain cause (such as Connection refused or 503 Service Unavailable), when it started and recovered, and how long it was down. Times are in UTC.
- Your footer text.
The page refreshes every minute while it's open.
Never shown: the monitored URLs, raw error messages, root-cause summaries, fix notes, who acknowledged an incident, and anything from monitors you didn't pick. Search engines are asked not to index the page.
Passwords
- Changing the password signs every visitor out of that page; they need the new one.
- To keep the current password while editing other fields, leave New password blank.
- Untick Password protected to make the page open to anyone with the link.
- After 10 wrong tries from one address in 15 minutes, that address has to wait.
Limits
- 5 status pages per account, shared by all its projects.
- Up to 50 monitors per page.
- A deleted monitor drops off its pages by itself. Deleting a page stops its link working at once.
