They do publish an RSS feed for the status page, but there is no direct way to get notified AFAIK. I used to create a Slack notifier using IFTTT.

- captn3m0 3y agoFor infra folks, I always suggest having a Slack channel with RSS feeds from vendor incident sites. Slack let’s you subscribe directly to an RSS feed using /feed.
- talonx 3y agoYes, I used to do that for my teams. Most infra vendors have RSS feeds for their public status pages.
- alectroem 3y agoThats a really good idea!
- sleepybrett 3y agoDon't put this in a special channel just for vendor incidents. Hopefully you have a channel for each vendor tool where you have a vendor representative present. You put that bot in there. It's much more likely to be noticed and much less likely to be a channel that everyone ignores because it's SNR is to low.
- danielovichdk 3y ago"vendor representative" ? Internal or external contact ? Sounds like a good approach nonetheless
- sleepybrett 3y agoexternal, not every vendor will do this but if you are big enough and they are big enough it never hurts to ask.
- captn3m0 3y agoYeah, we did do this when we got large enough for a shared slack channel with aws. But for most orgs, just having this piped to your alerts channel is good enough.
