We’re excited to announce expanded functionality for the StatusGator Boards API. You can now create new boards, update existing boards, and delete boards directly through the API. Previously, the Boards API only supported listing boards and retrieving board details. With these new capabilities, you can automate the complete board lifecycle – from provisioning new boards to managing ownership and cleaning up boards that are no longer needed.

In May 2026, StatusGator detected 854 Early Warning Signals across SaaS, cloud, developer, and infrastructure services. Of those incidents, 695 were never acknowledged by providers, while 159 were eventually confirmed on official status pages. Throughout the month, StatusGator’s Early Warning Signals continued to surface emerging outages before many providers published updates, giving teams valuable time to investigate and respond.

We’ve rolled out a small but useful improvement to the Status Page → General settings. Previously, the Support contact field in the footer only accepted: Based on feedback from our users, the field now also supports phone numbers. Status pages in StatusGator already offer a variety of customization options – including custom branding, layouts, monitor visibility, subscriber settings, and privacy controls.

Your Datadog dashboards tell you what’s happening inside your infrastructure. StatusGator helps you understand what’s happening with the vendors and services your business depends on. Now you can bring both together.
