Status widget for your website
3 min read · Status pages
The status widget is a small live indicator that you embed on your own site (for example in the footer or on a support page). It shows visitors right away whether your services are running - without them having to leave for a separate status page.
Prerequisite
You need to have created a public status page without password protection. The widget shows the status of the monitors that are on this status page.
How to embed it
- Open the detail of your status page in Status pages.
- Copy the ready-made embed code. It looks like this:
<div id="epulzio-status"></div>
<script src="https://epulz.io/widget.js" data-slug="vasa-stranka" async></script>
Paste it into the HTML of your site where you want the widget to appear. That is all.
Features
- Lightweight and asynchronous - the script loads via
async, so it does not slow down your page. - It fetches the status itself from the public JSON endpoint
/widget/<slug>.json(with CORS enabled). - It shows the overall status (all operational / partial outage / outage) based on the monitors on the status page.
Tip: place the widget in the footer or on a "Contact / Support" page. The customer then sees the status before writing to you that "nothing works".
