## Is it down for you, or for everyone?

A status page shows what the vendor has confirmed, which often lags what users see. [Run a live check of github.com](https://getuptimely.com/is-it-down/github.com) to see whether it answers right now.

## Get alerted when GitHub has an incident

Uptimely’s External Status Page monitor watches GitHub’s status page and alerts your team by email, SMS, phone call, Slack, Discord or browser push when it reports a problem, next to the monitors for your own services.

### Is GitHub down right now?

The status at the top of this page is GitHub's own, read from its public status page every couple of minutes. It shows what GitHub's team has confirmed. For an independent check of whether github.com answers right now, use the live check on the is-it-down page.

### Where is GitHub's official status page?

GitHub publishes its status at https://www.githubstatus.com. This page shows the same data with the recent incident history in one place, and links each incident to GitHub's own write-up.

### Why does GitHub not work for me when its status says operational?

A status page lists the incidents a vendor has confirmed, and confirmation takes time: problems often reach users minutes before they reach the status page, and some partial or regional problems never appear on it. Your own network, account or region can also be the cause.

### How can I get alerted when GitHub has an incident?

Add an External Status Page monitor in Uptimely pointed at https://www.githubstatus.com. It reads the page on a schedule and alerts your team by email, SMS, phone call, Slack, Discord or browser push when GitHub reports a problem, beside the monitors for your own services.
