How to setup a Status Page
Last updated: April 24, 2025
Setup Status Page
Navigate to Compliance > Status Page in your Bastion dashboard
Create your status page with static status indicators for your services
Configure which services you want to display on the status page
Set the initial status of your services (typically "Operational")
Usage
The recommended approach is to use a static status page where you manually update the status of your services. This gives you full control over your communication and helps avoid false positives that might occur with automated monitoring.
When using the status page:
Keep services marked as "Operational" during normal conditions
Manually update the status when you experience genuine service disruptions
Use the status page as a transparent communication channel with your customers during outages
This approach is used by major technology companies like GitHub, AWS, and Microsoft, as it ensures accurate communication of service status without the risk of automated false alerts.
