Backblaze Status FAQ

Is Backblaze down right now?

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

What should I do if Backblaze 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 Backblaze recovers.

How do I check Backblaze uptime history?

PulsAPI tracks Backblaze uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is 99.67%. A free PulsAPI account unlocks the full 90-day SLA history and incident timeline for Backblaze.

How fast does PulsAPI detect Backblaze outages?

PulsAPI polls the official Backblaze 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 Backblaze components?

Yes. PulsAPI monitors 4 individual Backblaze components, so you can see which service or region is affected instead of a generic "service degraded" banner.

Can I get alerts when Backblaze goes down?

Yes. Create a PulsAPI account and subscribe to Backblaze. Email alerts are included on the free Starter plan. Paid plans add Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, and webhooks whenever Backblaze status changes.

How do I report an issue with Backblaze to the community?

Click "Report an issue" at the top of this page, pick the issue type and severity, and optionally add your region and a short note. Reports are anonymous and help other engineers spot Backblaze problems early. Official status pages often lag real incidents by 10 to 20 minutes.

Is there a free way to monitor Backblaze?

Yes. PulsAPI's Starter plan is free forever and covers up to 5 monitored services with email alerts, so Backblaze plus four more costs nothing. Every new account also gets a 30-day Business trial — unlimited monitors, Slack alerts, SLA reporting — with no credit card.
