Connect StatusGator with webhooks
The webhooks integration allows StatusGator to send real-time notifications about service status changes directly to your own systems. Webhooks give you flexibility to automate workflows, trigger custom alerts, or integrate with third-party tools.
Note: StatusGator’s latest webhook schema version is 3.0, released in June 2025.
If you created your integration before this release, you’re likely on version 2.0.
The legacy version is deprecated and will eventually be removed — users will be notified in advance.
All new integrations use version 3.0 automatically.
Features
- Real-time push notifications – receive service updates the moment they happen.
- Custom automation – use webhook data to trigger scripts, alerts, or workflows in your own systems.
- Broad compatibility – integrate StatusGator with any platform or service that accepts webhook POST requests.
Set up the integration
- Log in to your StatusGator account.
- Go to Integrations → Webhooks → Add.
- Enter your Webhook URL (the endpoint in your system that will receive POST requests).
- Click Save to activate the integration.
- Send a test notification to confirm everything is working.
Failures and retries
If StatusGator is unable to receive a 200 response from your webhook URL five times, your webhook integration will be disabled. To fix the webhook URL visit your dashboard and click the Integrations button in the header and fix any issues with your URL to re-activate the webhook.
Non-connection-related failures will be retried 20 times over a period of 24 days. StatusGator waits a period of time between retries. This delay increases starting a few seconds growing to over a day before exhausting all retries. When retries are exhausted, the webhook is discarded.
Logs
- Every webhook delivery attempt is recorded in StatusGator.
- You can view delivery attempts under the Logs tab in the Webhook integration settings.
- Logs include the payload, response codes, and any errors from your system.
- These logs help you verify correct delivery or troubleshoot issues quickly.
