Altmetric Status FAQ

Is Altmetric down right now?

PulsAPI checks Altmetric every 60 seconds. The verdict at the top of this page comes from the latest poll of the official Altmetric status feed and refreshes automatically, so you are not looking at a stale cached answer.

What should I do if Altmetric is not working?

Check the component list on this page first to see if your failure matches a known outage. If it does, you can report the issue for other engineers, follow the incident timeline for vendor updates, and run any fallback your app supports until Altmetric recovers.

How do I check Altmetric uptime history?

PulsAPI tracks Altmetric uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is 58.33%. A free PulsAPI account unlocks the full 90-day SLA history and incident timeline for Altmetric.

How fast does PulsAPI detect Altmetric outages?

PulsAPI polls the official Altmetric status page every 60 seconds and usually delivers alerts to Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, or email in under 4 seconds after detection. That is often faster than someone on your team notices on their own.

Does PulsAPI track individual Altmetric components?

Yes. PulsAPI monitors 6 individual Altmetric components, so you can see which service or region is affected instead of a generic "service degraded" banner.
