# Roboflow Status and Uptime

***

### Roboflow Status

Need to know if Roboflow is down? Check the live status page first.

[**status.roboflow.com**](https://status.roboflow.com/) shows real-time uptime for the Roboflow App, Hosted Inference API, REST API, and Universe.

### Is Roboflow down right now?

If the [status page](https://status.roboflow.com/) shows **All Systems Operational**, the platform is up. A problem you're seeing is most likely local — check the troubleshooting steps below.

If the status page reports a degradation or outage, we're on it.

### Check a specific service

The status page tracks each component independently:

| Service                  | What it covers                                       |
| ------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| Roboflow App             | `app.roboflow.com` — dashboard, training, annotation |
| Hosted Inference API     | `detect.roboflow.com` — model predictions            |
| REST API                 | dataset, project, and workspace endpoints            |
| Universe                 | `universe.roboflow.com` — public datasets and models |
| Serverless Hosted API V2 | serverless inference                                 |

### Roboflow not working? Try this first

Before assuming an outage, rule out a local issue:

1. **Confirm the** [**status page**](https://status.roboflow.com/) **is green.** If it's not, it's us.
2. **Check your** [**API key**](https://app.roboflow.com/settings/api)**.** A `401`/`403` is an auth problem, not an outage.
3. **Hard refresh** (`Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R`) and clear cache if the app won't load.
4. **Retry on a `5xx`.** Server errors are usually transient — back off and retry.
5. **Update your SDK:** `pip install --upgrade roboflow inference`.
6. **Check your network** — VPNs and corporate firewalls can block `*.roboflow.com`.

### FAQ

**Is Roboflow down?** Check [status.roboflow.com](https://status.roboflow.com/) for the live answer. Green means the platform is operational.

**Why is Roboflow slow or not loading?** If the status page is green, it's likely local — hard refresh, clear cache, and check your network. Persistent issues during a green status are worth posting on the [forum](https://discuss.roboflow.com/).

**Is the Roboflow API down?** The Hosted Inference API and REST API are tracked separately on the [status page](https://status.roboflow.com/). A `5xx` is server-side; a `401`/`403` is an auth issue with your API key.

**Is Roboflow Universe down?** Universe (`universe.roboflow.com`) has its own line item on the [status page](https://status.roboflow.com/).

**How do I get notified about outages?** Subscribe on the [status page](https://status.roboflow.com/) for email/SMS/Slack/webhook alerts on new incidents.
