If there is an issue with a particular webhook, that should be noticed based on errored responses when trying to use the webhook. slack(message: App successfully released) slack( message: App successfully released, channel: channel, Optional, by default will post. And in that case, the status site would not be updated. It is far, far more likely that there could be a potential issue with a specific webhook, than the possibility of the entire service having issues.

GitHub: status page Whats great about it: GitHubs status page embraces minimalistic design, while also showing all of the systems in one and easy-to-understand dashboard. On the page, Locate the "Subscribe to Updates" or "RSS" button, and copy the RSS feed URL. This should be pretty easy - look up " status" and find the status page. Step 2: Find the RSS feeds of your SaaS apps' status This week we figured out a way to be a lot more "on top" of it, and it was as simple as ABC. Figma outages, Sanity downtimes, performance issues in GitHub Actions - it happens all the time and our people usually don't assume that the problem is the cloud, causing frustration.
