Status List Uptime
Last updated May 30, 2024
StatusList is an add-on for monitoring the services you rely on.
Know when the service providers you rely on degrade, fail or resume.
Realtime Notifications
Get instant email notifications when your service providers fail, degrade or resume. Email notifications contain full HTTP transcripts and timing information on things like TLS setup, DNS lookups etc.
HTTP Transcripts
View the full HTTP request and response in full-text view. Basically, the raw text you’d see if you transmitted this request over telnet. Any headers you mark as sensitive are starred (****) out.
Trends and History
On your web dashboard view up to 30 days of history. The historical graphs show trends in specific event times (e.g. TLS setup time seems to be spiking). Counters show failure and degradation rates.
StatusList is accessible via a web dashboard accessible through the Heroku CLI and Addons Panel.
Provisioning the add-on
StatusList can be attached to a Heroku application via the CLI:
