API (Beta)

Platform health endpoints

Check whether OutboundSync is available with the public /health/live and /health/ready endpoints — JSON status, per-component checks, and 200/503 semantics.

When to use this guide: Poll these endpoints to programmatically confirm OutboundSync is available while you build and operate an integration. They are lightweight health checkpoints — a complement to, not a replacement for, the OutboundSync status page.

OutboundSync exposes two public health endpoints so you — and any uptime monitor you run — can check platform availability without an API key. They are unauthenticated (no cookies, no Bearer token) and set Cache-Control: no-store so every response is fresh.

https://app.outboundsync.com

The health endpoints live at the root of the platform host, alongside the developer API.

Try it in the console

Liveness — is the OutboundSync platform process up and serving requests? This endpoint always returns 200 when the process is reachable and does no downstream checks. Use it for basic up/down monitoring.

curl 'https://app.outboundsync.com/health/live' \
  -X GET
{
"schema_version": 3,
"status": "operational"
}
Try it in the console

Readiness — can the platform receive events and sync them right now? GET /health is an alias for the same response. Point uptime monitors at this endpoint.

curl 'https://app.outboundsync.com/health/ready' \
  -X GET
{
"schema_version": 3,
"status": "operational",
"checks": {
"sources": "operational",
"destinations_activities": "operational",
"destinations_forwarding": "operational",
"destinations_blocklists": "operational",
"destinations_reply_relays": "operational"
}
}
Field Type Description
schema_version number Version of this response contract. Currently 3. New checks are added under checks; treat unknown keys as forward-compatible.
status string Overall rollup: operational, partial_outage, or major_outage.
checks.sources string Inbound event ingestion — operational or outage.
checks.destinations_activities string CRM activity and contact sync — operational or outage.
checks.destinations_forwarding string Event forwarding to your configured URLs — operational or outage.
checks.destinations_blocklists string Block-list sync back to your sequencer — operational or outage.
checks.destinations_reply_relays string Reply relays / Reply-CC to sales-rep inboxes — operational or outage.

The destinations_* checks are only present where the background worker is monitored (production and staging). In local development they are omitted and the response contains sources only.

  • sources — inbound event ingestion: sequencer webhooks and platform ingress. The developer API shares this path.
  • destinations_activities — syncing activities and contact updates into your CRM.
  • destinations_forwarding — forwarding received events to the customer URLs you configure.
  • destinations_blocklists — syncing CRM block lists back to your sequencer block lists.
  • destinations_reply_relays — Reply-CC / reply relays that transfer prospect replies to a sales-rep inbox.

The overall status is derived from the individual checks:

status Meaning HTTP code
operational No checks are in outage. 200
partial_outage At least one check is in outage, but not all. 200
major_outage Every check is in outage (a total outage). 503

Each check is binary: operational or outage.

A 503 is returned only for a total outage. If one component is degraded while another is still working — for example, event ingestion is down but forwarding is up — the status is partial_outage and the HTTP code stays 200. Uptime monitors should treat the JSON status (and the individual checks) as the source of truth, not just the HTTP code.

Only /health, /health/live, and /health/ready exist. Any other GET /health/* path returns a JSON 404 (Cannot GET /health/…), so a mistyped monitor URL fails loudly instead of looking healthy.

Platform health answers “is OutboundSync up?” — a different question from “is my integration working?”, which the authenticated API v1 answers. The full picture has four layers:

Layer Endpoint Auth Answers
Platform liveness GET /health/live None Is the platform process up?
Platform readiness GET /health/ready None Can the platform receive and process events right now?
API connectivity GET /api/v1/me Bearer Is my key valid, and which CRM connections can it access?
Account pipeline readiness GET /api/v1/account/status Bearer Is my account configured and ready to sync?

Use the health endpoints for infrastructure-level monitoring and the API v1 endpoints for account-specific checks.

For a human-readable status overview and incident history, see the OutboundSync status page — also embedded as the System monitoring panel in the site footer. The health endpoints on this page are for programmatic checkpoints and complement that status page; they are not a replacement for it.
