Create public status pages that show real uptime data to your customers. No login required for viewers.

Creating a status page

1. Go to Status Pages in the sidebar
2. Click + New Status Page
3. Enter a name and optional custom subdomain (e.g. status.yourcompany.com)
4. Select which monitors to display
5. Click Save. Your page goes live immediately.

What visitors see

The public status page shows:

• Current status of each selected monitor (Operational / Degraded / Down)
• 90-day uptime history bars
• Active incident banners with description
• Uptime percentage over last 30 days
• Last checked timestamp

Point a subdomain to your HowlOps status page by adding one CNAME record. HTTPS is then provisioned automatically. See the custom domain guide for the full flow.

Maintaining incidents

When an incident is active, it automatically appears on your status page. You can:

• Add a human-readable description visible to your customers
• Post progress updates as you work to resolve it
• Mark as resolved. Status returns to Operational.

Email subscriptions

Visitors can subscribe to email notifications directly from your status page. They receive an alert when an incident opens and a recovery notice when it resolves.

How it works for visitors

1. Visitor clicks Subscribe to updates on your status page
2. They enter their email address
3. They receive a confirmation email and click to confirm
4. From that point, they get notified on every new incident and recovery

Managing subscribers

Go to Status Pages and open the configuration for your page. The Subscribers tab shows all confirmed email addresses. You can remove individual subscribers at any time.
