How to check if a Looker instance is up

Knowledge Drop

Last tested: June 2021

If you host your own Looker instance, you may want a way to monitor instance uptime and downtime.

One easy way to do this is with the `alive` endpoint. Replacing `customer.looker.com` with your Looker URL, the following command will return a 200 response if the Looker instance is alive: 

curl -i -k https://customer.looker.com/alive

Alternatively, you can check directly in the browser by visiting “customer.looker.com/availability”.
