It would be great if Stripe would offer an RSS feed for status updates in addition to twitter posts. A lot of other services have one and it's very convenient to subscribe to in Slack for updates. At my current company, for example, we have a #third-party-outages channel which we have all available third party services (GitHub, NPM, CircleCI, Slack [yes, it's meta], HackerOne, etc.) status page RSS feed notify in case of an outage.
- leesalminen 7y agoI’ve used StatusGator for this in the past with success.
- eropple 7y agoStatusGator isn't granular enough. Having a service go yellow just because a totally different geographic region got sad is annoying.
- procinct 7y agohttps://status.stripe.com/ https://status.stripe.com/ Edit: Actually looks like that page doesn't have an RSS feed, never mind
- leesalminen 7y agoI don’t see an RSS feed option there?
- harrygallagher4 7y agoIt wouldn't be perfect, but there are tons of services that can generate an RSS feed for a specific twitter user. It looks like @stripestatus only tweets when there's actually an issue (aside from updates on current issues)
- jammygit 7y agoI didn’t realize you could use slack as an rss client
- ComputerGuru 7y agoVia a bot.
- annon 7y agoI do the same, you can use the slack twitter integration to post the stripe alerts.
- jakecopp 7y agoI thought RSS requires polling - to get timely outage notifications does Slack hit all the RSS feeds every minute?
