Dashboards
ZeroDrop gives you three views: a high-level overview, a per-check detail page, and the public global dashboard.
Overview
The overview is the console home. It summarises your whole account at a glance:
- Each check's current status:
ok,firingorunknown. - A latency sparkline so you can spot trends without opening each check.
- Anything currently firing surfaced first, so problems are front and centre.
Expand a row to see its per-location detail without leaving the page.
Check detail
Opening a check shows everything ZeroDrop knows about it:
- Per-location results for SFO, NYC, AMS and SYD: the latest status, response
text (for example
200 OK), any error, and when it was last seen. - Latency over time as a chart, so you can correlate slowdowns with events.
- 30-day uptime, measured as the share of the window the check was not in an
open incident. Time spent
unknown, and time before the check existed, count as up, so a brand-new or healthy check reads 100%. - The past incidents for this check: when it fired and resolved, and for how long.
- For HTTPS checks, TLS certificate details including days until expiry.
This is also where you edit the check's configuration, manage its consensus thresholds, and choose which notification channels it uses.
Reading status colours
| Colour | State | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Green | ok | Consensus says healthy. |
| Red | firing | Consensus says down, an incident is open. |
| Muted | unknown | Too few live locations to judge. |
Public badges
Any check can publish shields.io-style status badges you can embed anywhere, for example in a project README. Turn on Public badges when editing a check, and its detail page shows three ready-to-copy image URLs:
- Status, showing up, down or unknown.
- Uptime, showing the 30-day figure.
- SSL, showing days until the certificate expires.
Badges are served without sign-in and only ever reveal the check's name, status, uptime and certificate expiry. They're off by default, and a check that hasn't opted in returns nothing, so nothing is exposed unless you choose to. Turning the setting back off stops serving them right away.
The global dashboard
The global dashboard is a public page on the marketing site that monitors the uptime of well-known internet services (big-tech infrastructure, AI and developer APIs, social platforms, streaming, and commerce) from the same four ZeroDrop locations.
It's a live demonstration of what the platform does, and a handy "is it just me?" reference when a major service feels slow. It's read-only and unauthenticated; your own checks are private to your account.
