Status.

There is no hosted status dashboard yet. This page explains how each part of the service is monitored and links the public health endpoints, so you can check them yourself.

/health Runtime error reporting and request metrics on the server. Not yet part of the 5-minute external uptime check.

Each /health endpoint is public, needs no API key, and returns JSON with "ok": true when that service is up. The Places API health response also reports the Overture source release being served. A health response only shows the service is running; it does not prove every search will succeed.

How monitoring works

Reporting an outage

If requests are failing, email support@openplacesapi.com with the time, the HTTP status, and the request_id from the error body. Self-serve plans do not include an uptime guarantee; see the SLA page.
