Amplitude Status Monitor

Amplitude Status: Is Amplitude Down Right Now?

Real-time monitoring coming soon

We are working on adding live status checks for this service.

Use this Amplitude status guide to confirm outages fast, troubleshoot event ingestion or analytics issues, and get real-time monitoring for the moment Amplitude goes down.

Quick Amplitude Status Checklist

  • 1. Check official status updates.
  • 2. Verify event data freshness.
  • 3. Confirm with community reports.
  • 4. Queue events locally as backup.
Looking for live data? Visit /api/amplitude.

Check the official Amplitude status page

Amplitude posts incident updates, data ingestion degradation notices, and maintenance windows on its official status dashboard.

status.amplitude.com

Look for community reports

Crowd-sourced signals can confirm widespread Amplitude event ingestion failures, chart errors, or dashboard outages.

Downdetector reports

Verify with independent monitoring

Use API Status Check for third-party monitoring that tracks Amplitude historical incidents and uptime.

Common Amplitude Issues During Outages

Events not appearing in charts

Amplitude may experience ingestion delays where tracked events are not reflected in charts or dashboards for extended periods.

HTTP API ingestion errors

Applications sending events via Amplitude's HTTP API may receive 5xx errors or experience silent data drops during platform incidents.

Charts and dashboards loading slowly

Amplitude's Event Segmentation, Funnel Analysis, and Retention charts may time out or fail to load during backend degradation.

Cohort and Recommend failures

Behavioral cohorts, Recommend features, and audience sync may fail or stall during Amplitude platform incidents.

Troubleshooting Steps Before You Assume Amplitude Is Down

  1. 1

    Check event data freshness

    Look for data freshness indicators in Amplitude charts to distinguish between data delays and a complete outage.

  2. 2

    Verify your API key

    Confirm your Amplitude API key is correct and your project hasn't hit its monthly event volume limits.

  3. 3

    Test with the Amplitude Debugger

    Use the Amplitude event stream or user lookup to verify whether events are reaching the Amplitude platform.

  4. 4

    Check SDK and implementation version

    Ensure you're using a supported Amplitude SDK. Outdated SDKs may have connectivity issues that mimic platform outages.

  5. 5

    Implement local event queuing

    Queue events locally and retry failed API calls to prevent data loss during transient Amplitude platform failures.

Real-Time Amplitude Monitoring

API Status Check tracks Amplitude status with independent monitoring, uptime stats, and incident history so you can confirm outages quickly.

  • Independent Amplitude status checks

    API Status Check performs independent monitoring so you can verify Amplitude status even if official updates are delayed.

  • Incident history and uptime data

    Review recent incidents, response times, and reliability trends to understand Amplitude platform stability.

  • Real-time alerts and integrations

    Get notified with email alerts, RSS feeds, and webhooks when Amplitude experiences a new incident.

Alternative Solutions During Amplitude Outages

Use Mixpanel or PostHog as backup

Mixpanel and PostHog offer similar product analytics and can accept events as a backup during Amplitude outages.

Log events to your own database

Send a parallel copy of critical events to your own data store to avoid data loss during Amplitude downtime.

Use Google Analytics 4 as a fallback

GA4 can capture basic event data as a temporary fallback, though it lacks Amplitude's depth of product analytics.

Monitor recovery via API Status Check

Set up alerts on API Status Check to get notified the moment Amplitude recovers from an outage.

Get notified when Amplitude is back up

No account needed. We will email you once and thats it.

Amplitude Status FAQ

Is Amplitude down right now?

Check status.amplitude.com and API Status Check for independent monitoring. If both show incidents, Amplitude is likely experiencing a widespread outage.

Why are my Amplitude events not showing up?

Event delays are common during Amplitude outages. Check data freshness indicators in your charts and verify the status page for ingestion pipeline issues.

Why are Amplitude charts not loading?

Chart loading failures during outages are common. Try simplifying your chart query, refreshing the page, or checking the Amplitude status page.

Is the Amplitude HTTP API down?

API outages show as 5xx errors. Check status.amplitude.com for API-specific incidents and implement retry logic in your event tracking code.

Will I lose event data during an Amplitude outage?

Amplitude SDKs typically queue events and retry on failure. However, for critical data, implement your own event buffer to ensure zero data loss.

How can I get Amplitude outage alerts?

Subscribe to alerts on API Status Check to receive real-time notifications when Amplitude has an incident.
