[](https://upbutler.com/status/aliexpress)Tell your outage from AliExpress's
Declare that your project depends on AliExpress. When one of your monitors fails while AliExpress has an incident that began around the same time, UpButler tags your incident "likely upstream" with their incident linked, says so in the alert and the AI report, and tells your on-call agent not to change code.
npx upbutler init finds the dependency from your env var names and packages. The catalog, dependencies and upstream-aware incidents are on every plan, including Free.

}Questions
- Is AliExpress down right now?
- No. As of 2026-10-10 07:19 UTC, AliExpress is up. This page reads the status again every 2 minutes.
- Where does this status come from?
- AliExpress publishes no status page; only the independent probe is shown.
- What does UpButler's own AliExpress check prove?
- Every two minutes UpButler sends one request without credentials to the AliExpress Open Platform gateway (api-sg.aliexpress.com) from eu-central. Any answer from the edge, usually HTTP 200, shows that DNS, TLS and routing work from there. It does not prove that authenticated requests succeed, and it is one location, not a global view. It is most useful when it fails before their status page changes; the page then says so.
- How can my agent or app check AliExpress status?
- Fetch https://upbutler.com/status/aliexpress/status.agent.json: a small JSON document with a verdict (proceed, retry, fallback or pause) and retryAfterSec. No key is needed. The same answer is an MCP tool, upstream_status {"service":"aliexpress"}, on https://upbutler.com/mcp/public.
- How do I know whether an outage is mine or AliExpress's?
- Add "aliexpress" to the dependencies of your UpButler workspace. When one of your monitors fails while AliExpress has an incident that began around the same time, your incident is tagged "likely upstream" with their incident linked, and your on-call agent is told not to change code.
