Is Red Cactus Down?

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

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 Red Cactus recovers.

PulsAPI tracks Red Cactus uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is not published yet, because a 30-day figure needs 30 days of tracked history. The 90-day uptime strip on this page is public: no account needed. A free account adds alerts whenever Red Cactus changes state, plus 15 days of incident detail; Pro extends that to 90 days and Business to 13 months.

PulsAPI reads the official Red Cactus status page. PulsAPI re-checks it every 60 seconds. Alerts reach Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, or email once a change has held for 5 minutes, so a one-minute blip does not page you.
