Ask your phone agent about uptime and monitoring status for your websites and APIs with Updown.io.

Updown.io watches your websites and APIs and tells you when they are down or slow. With AgentCalls, your agent can connect to your Updown.io account and use it during a call. Callers can ask whether a site is up, and your team can be alerted by phone or message about outages. The agent can also share the Updown.io monitoring server addresses when your IT contact needs to allow them through a firewall.

What your agent can do with Updown.io

  • Answer whether a monitored website or API is up or down during a call
  • Read the latest uptime and response status for your monitored services
  • Share the current Updown.io monitoring node IP addresses for firewall or allowlist setup
  • List the monitoring nodes available for your checks
  • Send an outage update by message to the right person on your team

Updown.io exposes 5 actions. You choose which ones the agent may use and whether each runs during or after the call.

Example calls

Client asks if their site is live

  1. Caller

    Hi, my customers say the checkout page on shop.brightmill.co is not loading. Is it down?

  2. Agent

    Let me check that for you. Updown.io shows shop.brightmill.co as up. The last check responded in about 340 milliseconds.

  3. Caller

    Odd. Maybe it is only on my side. Thanks.

  4. Agent

    If it still fails for your customers, I can note the report and send it to our support team now. Would you like me to do that?

IT contact setting up a firewall

  1. Caller

    Our IT person is locking down the office firewall. Do you have the addresses Updown.io uses to check our site?

  2. Agent

    Yes. I can read out the current Updown.io node IPv4 addresses. Do you want me to send the full list to your email instead?

  3. Caller

    Send the list to it@northvale-dental.com, please.

  4. Agent

    Done. The list is on its way to it@northvale-dental.com now. Anything else I can help with?

Outage alert after hours

  1. Agent

    Hello, this is Riley calling from Harbor Street Hardware. Your booking page has been reported down by Updown.io for the last ten minutes.

  2. Caller

    Oh no, I did not know. Can you check which page it is?

  3. Agent

    It is bookings.harborhardware.com, and the last three checks timed out. I have sent a message to your on-call contact with the details.

  4. Caller

    Great, thank you for letting me know so fast.
