## Why Monitor Notion?

When Notion is down, teams lose access to documentation, project boards, and shared knowledge bases. If your team runs on Notion, downtime stalls work across departments.

## What to Monitor

- `www.notion.so` — Main app availability
- `api.notion.com` — Public API (if using integrations)
- `your-published-notion-page.notion.site` — Published Notion pages (if used as public docs)

## What You Should Actually Do

1. Monitor notion.so — catch outages before your team discovers them in meetings
2. Monitor your published Notion pages if you use them as public documentation
3. Keep offline exports of critical docs — runbooks, incident procedures, onboarding guides
4. Set up alerts via Telegram — so you know before standup that the sprint board is unavailable
5. Bookmark status.notion.so — Notion's official status page

## Notion's Official Status Page

Notion publishes real-time status at https://status.notion.so. Your own monitor complements it by catching connection-level issues, often before the status page updates.

## Takeaway

Notion is where teams store their operating knowledge — procedures, decisions, roadmaps, and documentation. When it's down, the team doesn't just lose a tool — they lose access to how they work. Monitoring Notion won't prevent outages, but it buys you the 10 minutes needed to prepare: grab cached docs, redirect meetings, and avoid the collective "wait, Notion is down?" moment.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How do I get notified when Notion goes down?

Set up an HTTP monitor for notion.so on Monitoristic with Telegram alerts. You'll know before your morning standup that the sprint board isn't available.

### Can I monitor my published Notion pages?

Yes. If you use Notion pages as public documentation, monitor the published URL (e.g., your-team.notion.site). It can go down independently from the main app.

### What should I do when Notion is down?

Use cached browser versions of critical pages. If you export key docs to PDF regularly, use those as backups. For meetings, rely on memory or previous screenshots until Notion recovers.

### How is this different from status.notion.so?

Notion's status page shows global platform health. Your monitor checks whether you can reach Notion right now. It also gives you push alerts instead of requiring you to manually check a status page.
