There is no keyless endpoint of Confluent Cloud that says anything useful, so UpButler does not probe it. To check your own Confluent Cloud account, add a monitor with your key: it is yours alone and catches what a shared probe cannot.

Get alerted when Confluent Cloud goes down
No account. One email when Confluent Cloud reports an incident, one when it is over. You confirm the address first, and every email has a one-click unsubscribe.
Or follow the RSS feed. On UpButler? Add Confluent Cloud as a dependency to route it to Slack, Teams or a webhook.
Status badge
Show Confluent Cloud's current status in a README or an internal wiki. It updates by itself.
[](https://upbutler.com/status/confluent)Tell your outage from Confluent Cloud's
Declare that your project depends on Confluent Cloud. When one of your monitors fails while Confluent Cloud 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 Confluent Cloud down right now?
- Partly. As of 2026-10-10 07:16 UTC, Confluent Cloud has a partial outage, with an open incident: "Experiencing high error rate in AZURE in West Europe region". This page reads the status again every 3 minutes.
- How long do Confluent Cloud outages usually last?
- Of the 4 incidents Confluent Cloud reported in the last 90 days, half were resolved within 56 min; the longest took 13 h 4 min. Incidents rated major or critical typically took 56 min. These are the provider's own start and end times.
- Where does this status come from?
- From Confluent Cloud's own status page API at https://status.confluent.cloud. UpButler reads it once for everyone (not once per visitor) every 3 minutes with conditional requests, and shows it unchanged: incident titles and component names are Confluent Cloud's words.
- Can I get an alert when Confluent Cloud goes down?
- Yes, without an account: enter your email on this page, confirm the link we send, and you get one email when Confluent Cloud reports an incident and one when it is over. There is also an RSS feed at https://upbutler.com/status/confluent/feed.rss. Teams on UpButler can route the same alert to Slack, Teams or a webhook.
- How can my agent or app check Confluent Cloud status?
- Fetch https://upbutler.com/status/confluent/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":"confluent"}, on https://upbutler.com/mcp/public.
- How do I know whether an outage is mine or Confluent Cloud's?
- Add "confluent" to the dependencies of your UpButler workspace. When one of your monitors fails while Confluent Cloud 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.
