Widgets

How can I use Widgets?

  • Embed flexible widgets on your website to display real-time outage information.
  • Widgets can show different levels of information, from high-level alerts on a homepage to detailed maps on a dedicated status page.
  • Users can configure a widget to show nothing by default and then pop up text or updates when a problem occurs.

Widgets Index

In the Widgets page, an index of all existing Widgets are displayed with the ability to view them individually. The widgets index may be sorted by name, message, or by widgets that show the map.

When viewing the widget, a code snippet is provided to embed your widget within your site.
