The Outreach Status Page

Purpose: 

The purpose of this article is to provide information and direction to Outreach users regarding the Outreach status page and enabling RSS feeds to receive notifications regarding Outreach outages and performance issues.  

Check the status of outages or any performance issues at status.outreach.io. Interruptions in service and scheduled downtime will both be updated to the status page. 

You will see your Outreach account location listed at the top of the page in a yellow banner. The example above shows the location "App1d." Scroll down to expand the list of features and their statuses for your location. Hover over the question mark icon to see more information about that feature.
