Vultr Server Status JSON Endpoints

<?xml encoding="utf-8" ??>

In addition to our HTML status page, Vultr also provides real-time status and alert information in JSON format. This guide documents our JSON schema for alerts and status.

JSON Status Endpoint

The Status endpoint provides a JSON object containing the current Vultr infrastructure status. This summary includes all regions, current outages, alerts, and upcoming scheduled maintenance. The status endpoint is:

• https://status.vultr.com/status.json

Status Schema

The status object consists of two top-level nodes:

• service_alerts: Array

  • Array of service alert objects related to Vultr API or Customer Portal service issues.
    This field only returns data if there is an active issue.

• regions: String

  • A collection of Regions

Regions are prefixed by RegionID and consist of:

• location: String

  • Location name

• country: String

  • Country code

• country_name: String

  • Country name

• alerts: Array

  • A array of alert objects. See the Alert schema for details.
