API documentation

The 37signals status site API is really simple offering only one function, the ability to get the current status as json data.

You can request the current status using the URL http://status.37signals.com/status.json, you will get a json string back that when formatted looks like this:

{
  "status": {
    "mood":        "good",
    "updated_at":  "2011-01-13T00:47:58Z",
    "description": "All systems go"
  }
}

The three fields in detail:

mood

This will either be good or bad. Simply, good means everything is operating normally, bad means something is wrong, read the description for more detail.

updated_at

The time when this status was last changed

description

A very brief summary of the issue. Check the updates on the homepage for more detailed information.
