The Salesforce Trust site site is now the primary channel for all Heroku incident and maintenance communications.
The Heroku Status site, API, and email notifications will remain in place as a parallel backup incident communications channel until a longer-term strategy is finalized. If integration-impacting changes are scheduled, we’ll give you a minimum of 30-day advanced notice. We’ll update with more migration guidance here.
Dual Posting
As of October 10, 2025, Heroku posts all incident information to both the old https://status.heroku.com
site and the new Salesforce Trust site to give our users time to migrate to Salesforce Trust. Although we’ll give at least a 30-day notice before we stop dual posting, we strongly recommend that customers begin to familiarize themselves with the new Salesforce Trust site now.
All existing Heroku Status notification subscriptions were migrated to Salesforce Trust which now sends the notifications. You’ll also continue to receive email alerts for platform issues directly from status.heroku.com
until a longer-term strategy is finalized and communicated. After familiarizing yourself with the notifications coming from Salesforce Trust, we encourage you to review your Heroku Status notification subscription and unsubscribe from that system.
Status Information - Salesforce Trust Site
The Salesforce Trust - Heroku site shows the current status of the Heroku platform. Ongoing issues are indicated by an icon and contain a link to more detailed information about the incident.

---|---|
Available | The service running on the instance is available. |
Performance Degradation | The service is available, but not running at optimal performance. |
Service Disruption | The service is unavailable. |
Maintenance | The service is undergoing maintenance. |
View the Status of Regions (Instances)
The initial page shows each Heroku region, referred to as ”instances”. The icon beside each region indicates its status. For example, if there’s performance degradation occurring in the Heroku US region:
Select a region to show which services have incidents or maintenances.

Accessing the Heroku Status Site
Until further notice, you can continue to check the current status of platform incidents and maintenance at:

Eventually, status.heroku.com
will redirect permanently to the new Salesforce Trust site.
You can continue to use the heroku status
command in the Heroku CLI to quickly ascertain the current status. We’ll give you a minimum of 30-day advanced notice if we make any changes to that command.

Getting Notified When There is an Incident
The Salesforce Trust site offers more granular subscription options than Heroku Status, giving you the choice to be notified only of incidents that impact services you use . You can choose specific severity levels for communications across various channels, including email and SMS. Refer to the Trust notification guide for info and instructions.
During the dual posting period, you receive email alerts from both status.heroku.com
and Salesforce Trust. When you are ready you can unsubscribe from Heroku Status email notifications.
Actions to Take When You Suspect an Outage
Check Salesforce Trust to determine if there’s a current incident. If nothing’s reported, or if you’re experiencing something different than what’s reported, contact our support team.
Heroku Status API v4
We’ll fully deprecate the existing Heroku Status API (v4), available at https://status.heroku.com/api/v4/current-status and other related endpoints, at some point in the future.
If you use the Heroku Status API for integrations with your third-party systems, we recommend you start updating the integrations to the Salesforce Trust API now. When using the API to gather information about Heroku, the product
to reference is Heroku
.
We’ll provide a detailed deprecation timeline and developer guides in the near future.
