What PubNub says
Operational
Taken as is from PubNub's own status page API. Incident titles and component names below are theirs.
Open status.pubnub.comWhat UpButler measured
There is no keyless endpoint of PubNub that says anything useful, so UpButler does not probe it. To check your own PubNub account, add a monitor with your key: it is yours alone and catches what a shared probe cannot.

Get alerted when PubNub goes down
No account. One email when PubNub 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 PubNub as a dependency to route it to Slack, Teams or a webhook.
Status badge
Show PubNub's current status in a README or an internal wiki. It updates by itself.
[](https://upbutler.com/status/pubnub)Tell your outage from PubNub's
Declare that your project depends on PubNub. When one of your monitors fails while PubNub 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 PubNub down right now?
- No. As of 2026-10-10 07:16 UTC, PubNub is up. This page reads the status again every 3 minutes.
- Where does this status come from?
- From PubNub's own status page API at https://status.pubnub.com. 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 PubNub's words.
- Can I get an alert when PubNub goes down?
- Yes, without an account: enter your email on this page, confirm the link we send, and you get one email when PubNub reports an incident and one when it is over. There is also an RSS feed at https://upbutler.com/status/pubnub/feed.rss. Teams on UpButler can route the same alert to Slack, Teams or a webhook.
- How can my agent or app check PubNub status?
- Fetch https://upbutler.com/status/pubnub/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":"pubnub"}, on https://upbutler.com/mcp/public.
- How do I know whether an outage is mine or PubNub's?
- Add "pubnub" to the dependencies of your UpButler workspace. When one of your monitors fails while PubNub 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.
