Alert questions
How fast do alerts arrive?
Status is checked every 60 seconds against public Azure health data. Alerts are dispatched as soon as an incident is confirmed, typically within a minute or two of Microsoft acknowledging it, and often before it reaches your internal ticket queue.
What does an alert contain?
The affected services, the affected regions, the current status (investigating, mitigating, monitoring), and a link to the live incident timeline. Enough to brief stakeholders without leaving your inbox.
How many emails will I get?
Only incident notifications. No newsletters, no digests, no marketing. During a quiet month that can mean zero emails.
Is it free?
Yes. Alerts are free. The service is supported by Next Signal, the monitoring platform that powers our status checks.
Where does the data come from?
The official Azure status page and Azure Service Health, cross-checked against our own continuous probes. We never invent incidents, and every alert links back to a verifiable source.
Can I get alerts for only the services I use?
Yes. When you subscribe you can scope alerts to specific services (for example Virtual Machines, Entra ID, Storage, or SQL Database). Leave it unscoped to be notified about every monitored service.
Can I filter alerts by region?
You can. Most teams only care about the regions they deploy to, such as East US or West Europe. Region filtering keeps a Southeast Asia incident from paging a Europe-only team.
Will I get an alert when the incident is resolved?
Yes. You get the opening notification and a single resolved notification with the total duration, so you know when it is safe to stand your team down.
Can I set a severity threshold?
Yes. You can choose to hear about everything, or only major and critical incidents. Teams on call typically want everything; execs usually want critical-only.
How do I unsubscribe?
Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link, and it takes effect immediately. No login, no confirmation loop, no retention email.
Do you sell or share my email address?
No. Your address is used only to send the alerts you asked for. We do not sell, rent, or share subscriber lists, ever.
How is this different from Azure Service Health?
Azure Service Health is pull-based: you have to go look, and it is scoped to your subscription. We are push-based and independent. We watch the public signal for you, group the noise into one event, and email you the moment something that matters changes.
