Up here but not working for you?

Work down this list. Stop at the first step that fixes it.

  1. Reload the page with the cache skipped: Ctrl + F5 on Windows, Cmd + Shift + R on a Mac.
  2. Open slack.com in a private window. If it works there, an extension or a stored cookie is the cause.
  3. Try another network, for example your phone with wifi turned off. If it works, the fault is in your connection or your provider.
  4. Look up the address with our DNS lookup. If it finds records but your computer does not, restart your router or switch DNS server.
  5. Check if only one part is broken (sign-in, payments, uploads). Slack's status page lists each part.
  6. Wait 10 minutes and try again. Short faults often clear before anyone announces them.

For your own site, the full method is in our website down checklist.

How this check works

  • Every 5 minutes our server sends one request to https://slack.com and waits up to 8 seconds.
  • Any answer below HTTP status 500 counts as up. No answer, or a status of 500 or above, counts as failed.
  • A failed check is tried once more after 3 seconds before it is recorded.
  • We check from one location. A fault that only affects another region will not show here.
  • We check one address. Slack can have a broken feature while this address still answers.

Questions about Slack status

Is Slack down right now?+
No. Slack is up. Our last check of slack.com was on 22 Oct 2026, 19:03 UTC. It answered in 595 ms with HTTP status 200.
How often do you check Slack?+
Every 5 minutes, with one request to https://slack.com from our server. A check that fails is tried once more after 3 seconds before it counts as failed. Opening this page also runs one fresh check.
Slack is up here but it does not work for me. Why?+
Our check only proves that slack.com answers a request from our server. The fault can still be on your side (your connection, your DNS, your browser, an ad blocker), in your region only, or in one part of Slack such as sign-in or payments while the front page still loads.
Where does Slack announce outages?+
On its own status page: https://slack-status.com. That page is written by Slack and says which part is affected. Ours is an outside check of one address, so the two can disagree for a few minutes at the start of an incident.
What counts as down on this page?+
No answer within 8 seconds, a failed connection, or an HTTP status of 500 or above. Any other answer counts as up, including redirects and a 403, because it shows the server is running.
Can I get this kind of check for my own website?+
Yes. PULSX checks your own site every 60 seconds and sends an alert by email, Slack, Discord, webhook or phone push when it stops answering. It is free for 20 monitors, with no card.

This page watches Slack. Who watches your site?
