Frequently asked questions
Is Pexels down right now?
No — the Pexels API is operational. Our last check succeeded in 142ms.
How does APIzone check if Pexels is down?
APIzone continuously probes a public Pexels API endpoint from its own independent infrastructure and records response status and latency. Status is derived from consecutive failures and latency deviation — not from Pexels's own status page — so it reflects what we independently observe.
What does "degraded" mean for the Pexels API?
Degraded means the Pexels API is reachable but not fully healthy: some recent checks are failing, or response times are far above the normal baseline. It's a warning state between fully operational and down.
How reliable has Pexels been?
Over the last 90 days, APIzone has measured 99.94% uptime for the Pexels API. See the uptime breakdown above for 24-hour, 7-day, 30-day, and 90-day figures.
Can I get alerted when Pexels goes down?
Yes. Enter your email in the alert box on this page to be notified by email the moment the Pexels API goes down or is degraded, and again when it recovers. Slack, Discord, and Microsoft Teams delivery are also available.
