Outages Live

Get one provider (for example GitHub, AWS, Vercel, OpenAI): a one-line verdict on whether it reports a problem now, its active incidents, what people reported about it on outages.live in the last 24 hours (reviewed reports only, with a spike flag when many arrive in an hour), maintenance in progress, its last 10 incidents, and 90 days of daily history. Give region or component to keep only active incidents that name it, for example us-east-1 or Actions. Call it when a request to the provider fails, before you change code. An unknown name returns every tracked id.

List incidents across providers, the most recently updated first. By default only incidents that are open now. Narrow it with providers, category, and a minimum impact; set state to recent to add incidents resolved in the last days. When the server URL sets filters, they apply to each argument you do not give.

Tell outages.live that an outage affects your user, as the "I'm affected" button on the outage page does. Call it only when your user says that the outage affects them, never on your own. Give the outage id that get_provider or list_feed returns. The count shows on the outage page at once, and each user counts once for each outage, so a second call changes nothing. Returns the new affected count.

Report that a provider does not work for your user, as "Report an outage" on outages.live does, also when its status page shows no problem. Call it only when your user asks you to report it, never on your own. The outages.live team reviews each report, and only approved reports show on outages.live, in the API, and in get_provider. One report for each provider each hour.

Send feedback to the outages.live team: a provider to add, data that looks wrong (a status that does not match the provider's own page, a missing or stale incident), or an idea. The team reads every message. Send only what the user agreed to share.
