Tailscale Status FAQ

Is Tailscale down right now?

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

What should I do if Tailscale 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 Tailscale recovers.

How do I check Tailscale uptime history?

PulsAPI tracks Tailscale uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is 99.38%. A free PulsAPI account unlocks the full 90-day SLA history and incident timeline for Tailscale.

How fast does PulsAPI detect Tailscale outages?

PulsAPI polls the official Tailscale 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 Tailscale components?

Yes. PulsAPI monitors 11 individual Tailscale components, so you can see which service or region is affected instead of a generic "service degraded" banner.

Can I get alerts when Tailscale goes down?

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

How do I report an issue with Tailscale 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 Tailscale problems early. Official status pages often lag real incidents by 10 to 20 minutes.
