  • Maintenance windows and check state management.
  • Status page updates and notification destinations.
  • Scheduled tasks, tags, Broken Links, Application Health, and account management.
• Added a consecutive failures threshold for Sitemap notifications, allowing you to choose how many consecutive failures should occur before being notified.
• Added an in-app warning for Slack connections that will stop working in November, giving affected teams time to reconnect.
