Components are the individual items shown on your status page — each one represents a service, feature, or infrastructure piece your customers care about.

Adding a component

  1. Go to Status Page → Settings.
  2. Click Add component.
  3. Fill in:
    • Name — what customers see (e.g. “API”, “Dashboard”, “Payments”)
    • Description — optional one-line description
    • Linked services — select one or more services from your Obsy service catalog
  4. Click Save.

Linking to services

The Linked services field connects the component to Obsy services. When an incident affects those services, the component’s status updates automatically. You can link multiple services to one component. For example, a “Checkout” component might link to cart-service, payment-service, and inventory-service. If any of them are affected in an incident, the component shows a degraded status.

Component ordering

Drag and drop components in the Status Page → Settings list to reorder them. The order on the admin panel matches the order on the public page.

Manual status override

To manually set a component’s status (e.g. for planned maintenance):
  1. Click the component in the admin panel.
  2. Click Set status.
  3. Choose a status and add an optional message.
  4. Click Save.
Manual overrides persist until you clear them or link an incident resolves.

Component history

Each component shows a 90-day uptime bar on the public page. Each day is colored based on the worst status that day:
  • No issues → green
  • Degraded → yellow
  • Outage → red
  • Maintenance → blue
The uptime percentage shown is calculated from the proportion of minutes in the last 90 days that the component was Operational.

Removing a component

Click the component in the admin panel and click Delete. This removes the component from the public page immediately. Historical data for that component is also deleted.
