Documentation

Guides for setting up and operating your status page.

Setup

  • Getting Started — Create your first status page and publish it within minutes.
  • Custom Domains — Serve your status page from your own domain with automatic SSL.
  • Team — Invite colleagues, assign roles, and know how many seats your plan includes.
  • Plans & limits — What counts towards an allowance, what happens at a limit, and what survives a plan change.
  • Plan & billing — Buying a plan, paying on invoice, changing, cancelling — and what happens to your workspace along the way.
  • Account & security — Language, two-factor sign-in, workspace settings and the DPA — everything about your account.
  • Changelog — What changed in Statuswerk — new features and changes, by day.

Features

  • Components — The building blocks of your status page: what you report on, how you group it, and what each state means.
  • Incidents — Communicating disruption: status, severity, updates, visibility, and what each setting does.
  • Maintenance — Announcing planned work, starting and finishing it automatically, and who hears about it when.
  • Four-eyes approval — Publish incidents and maintenances only once a second person has agreed.
  • Monitoring — We check your URLs from six regions in Europe, confirm every outage twice and alert you.
  • Uptime — How we calculate availability — and why the number comes about differently than you might expect.
  • Subscribers — How users subscribe to incident and maintenance notifications.
  • Templates — Write recurring incidents and maintenances once instead of every time.
  • System Metrics — Push your own measurements to your status page and show them as charts.
  • Audit Log — See who changed what in your workspace — for audits and four-eyes evidence.

API

  • API Tokens — Creating tokens, setting their permissions, and binding them to one workspace.
  • AI assistants (MCP) — Run your status page from Claude, Cursor and others — through our MCP server, with your API token.

Notifications

  • Chat & Webhooks — Send incidents and maintenances to Slack, Teams, Discord, Google Chat or your own endpoint automatically.
  • Mail delivery — Sender address, replies, and sending through your own mail server.

Status Page & Embeds

  • Status page settings — Appearance, language, timezone, search engines and custom HTML — everything about the page itself.
  • Badges & embedding — Show the current status on your own website — as a badge, as a widget, as JSON or through the feeds.

Access

  • Private Status Pages — Put a status page behind a password or restrict it to specific networks.
  • Unlisted Entries — Tell the customers who are affected about an incident or maintenance — with a page of its own, but no entry on your status page.

API

  • API Reference — Programmatic access to incidents, maintenances, components, and subscribers. English only.
