About Our Slack Status Page Integration

Slack is a Chat and Communications solution that StatusGator has been monitoring since January 2015. Over the past almost 9 years, we have collected data on on more than 2,083 outages that affected Slack users. When Slack publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 11 components using 4 different statuses: up, warn, down, and maintenance which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.

More than 1,700 StatusGator users monitor Slack to get notified when it's down, is under maintenance, or has an outage. This makes it one of the most popular chat services monitored on our platform. We've sent more than 453,700 notifications to our users about Slack incidents, providing transparency and peace of mind. You can get alerts by signing up for a free StatusGator account.

If Slack is having system outages or experiencing other critical issues, red down notifications appear on the status page. In most cases, it means that core functions are not working properly, or there is some other serious customer-impacting event underway.

Warn notifications are used when Slack is undergoing a non-critical issue like minor service issues, performance degradation, non-core bugs, capacity issues, or problems affecting a small number of users.

Slack posts separate notifications for planned maintenance work. StatusGator will notify subscribers when Slack enters a pre-planned maintenance window, keeping you up to date.

Slack does not publish a feed of proactive maintenance events on their status page at this time. If they do, be sure to let us know and we'll aggregate Slack maintenance events into your unified calendar.

When Slack posts issues on their status page, we collect the main headline message and include that brief information or overview in notifications to StatusGator subscribers.

When Slack has outages or other service-impacting events on their status page, we pull down the detailed informational updates and include them in notifications. These messages often include the current details about how the problem is being mitigated, or when the next update will occur.

Because Slack has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you. This means, you can filter your status page notifications based on the services, regions, or components you utilize. This is an essential feature for complex services with many components or services spread out across many regions.
