Purpose / problem solved: Shows the health of Splunk Cloud Platform in SquaredUp, from Splunk's public status page (status.splunkcloud.com): overall status, per-component status, incidents and scheduled maintenance. It lets teams that depend on Splunk Cloud see a Splunk-side outage next to their own monitoring.
Primary audience (e.g. platform teams, SREs, product teams): Platform teams and SREs whose logging or security tooling runs on Splunk Cloud Platform.
Authentication method(s) (e.g. OAuth, Username/Password, API Key): None. The status page is public and needs no credentials.

🧪 Test plan
Deployed to a SquaredUp Dev organization with squaredup deploy, added the data source, and ran everything against the live Splunk status page.
Config validation: statusValidation returned 200 OK with the page name and indicator.
Streams, each run with squaredup test against the deployed plugin:
overallStatus returned one row ("All Systems Operational", all counts 0).
componentStatus returned 8 rows, with the two groups resolved and the four ungrouped components labelled "Ungrouped".
incidents returned 35 rows with timeframe None, and 67 rows with One row per affected component on. The last30days and last12hours timeframes returned no rows, which is correct because the latest incident was 31 July 2026.
maintenance returned the 4 completed windows.
Data checks: compared the incident impact against the worst component status for every incident, which is why Worst component status exists. Found three incidents recorded as resolved before they started and made the stream return no time to resolve for them.
Dashboards: deployed the three default dashboards and confirmed in the browser that every tile renders (see screenshots), including the bar chart that groups by the list-valued Components column. The Median Time to Resolve tile (2 hours 22 minutes) matches the median I calculated from the stream's rows.
Not exercised live: the status page had no active incident, outage or upcoming maintenance during testing. The Warning and Error states, and the Active and Upcoming tiles with data, were only checked against the historical incidents and maintenance windows, not against a live event.
⚠️ Known limitations
Status is platform-wide. The status page covers Splunk Cloud Platform as a whole. It can't tell you whether your own stack is affected.
An incident's impact can understate it. Splunk sets the Impact value by hand and it is sometimes lower than what happened. Worst component status shows the worst status any affected component reached.
History is limited to the 50 most recent records. The status page returns only its 50 most recent incidents and 50 most recent maintenance windows, with no paging. Once either list grows past 50, older records drop out, even with the timeframe set to None. There are 35 incidents today, so nothing is missing yet.
Every tile downloads the whole list. The status page has no server-side filtering, so each incident request fetches the full list (about 200 KB today) and filters it after download.
Some resolve times are wrong at the source. A few older incidents were recorded as resolved before they started, so Time to resolve is left empty for those.
Some incidents have no components. Splunk doesn't always tag an incident with the components it affected.
📚 Checklist
This PR adds a single plugin only
Plugin, datastream and UI naming follow SquaredUp guidelines
Add a credential-free plugin that reads Splunk Cloud Platform's public status API for overall and component health, incidents, and scheduled maintenance. Includes data streams, validation, documentation, and Overview, Incidents, and Maintenance dashboards.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
The plugin reads Splunk Cloud platform status, component, incident, and maintenance data. It adds three dashboards and a required check that reads the public status page.
Plugin metadata and UI information describe the status source. A required validation step uses the hidden status stream, which checks the response and returns page details. The README documents setup, streams, timeframes, and status mappings.
Overall and component status streams plugins/SplunkCloudStatus/v1/dataStreams/componentStatus.json, dataStreams/scripts/componentStatus.js, dataStreams/overallStatus.json, dataStreams/scripts/overallStatus.js
The streams retrieve component and summary data. Their scripts validate responses, map status values, and return component details or overall status counts.
Incident and maintenance streams plugins/SplunkCloudStatus/v1/dataStreams/incidents.json, dataStreams/scripts/incidents.js, dataStreams/maintenance.json, dataStreams/scripts/maintenance.js
The incident stream supports timeframe filtering and optional rows per component. The maintenance stream filters scheduled windows by timeframe. Both scripts map statuses and produce stream rows with their respective details.
Dashboard definitions and registration plugins/SplunkCloudStatus/v1/defaultContent/manifest.json, defaultContent/overview.dash.json, defaultContent/incidents.dash.json, defaultContent/maintenance.dash.json
The manifest registers three dashboards. The overview displays status, components, incidents, and maintenance; the other dashboards show incident metrics and history, and maintenance counts and windows.

Review comments at @plugins/SplunkCloudStatus/v1/docs/README.md:
- Around line 54-55: Update the history limitations and “whole history”
descriptions in the documentation to state that the incident and maintenance
endpoints each return only their 50 most recent records. Clarify that selecting
None does not include older records once either stream exceeds 50, and remove
claims that imply the plugin can retrieve the complete history.
