search_servicesFinds services in the catalog of 9,700+ status pages by name, with their status now. Use it to find a service’s slug.get_serviceOne service’s status from its official status page: what’s wrong, the components with a problem, 90 days of history and recent incidents.list_outagesServices reporting a problem right now, the newest first: the 25 best-known, unless all is true or a limit is given.list_dashboardsThe account’s dashboards (the ones this connection can see), with how many services and URL monitors each has and its worst status now.get_stack_statusWhat’s going on now on a dashboard: a summary, then every service and URL monitor with a problem, with when the problem began and when its current status did. A URL monitor that’s down lists what started around then. Without a dashboard, every dashboard.get_incident_historyIncidents on a dashboard in a window: the ones that started in it (with what else started at the same time) and the ones already going on. As far back as the plan’s history goes.get_monitorOne of the account’s URL monitors: its status, its uptime over the last 30 days (or since it started) with the failed checks apart, response times, its certificate and its latest checks.get_reliabilityHow reliable a dashboard’s services and URL monitors were over 7, 30 or 90 days: the least reliable first, with the share of time without a reported problem (minor issues count, so one long minor issue makes it low), time in each severity, incidents and recovery, and what tends to break together.create_dashboardMakes a dashboard with a name and, optionally, services by slug (search_services finds them), within the plan’s dashboards and services. Answers with its address.rename_dashboardRenames a dashboard. Its status page shares the name.add_servicesAdds services to a dashboard by slug (search_services finds them), within the plan’s limit.remove_servicesTakes services off a dashboard. Their history stays; adding one back shows it again.- +4 more on the listing page
