Readers receive the incidents and maintenance of a status page by e-mail. A subscription is made as follows:
- Choose "Subscribe to updates" in the top bar of the status page.
- The form "Subscribe to Updates" opens.
- Enter the e-mail address.
- Choose all components, or the components, groups and tags to follow.
- Choose whether to receive planned maintenance as well.
- Submit the form.
- Open the link in the confirmation e-mail. The subscription starts only after this confirmation.

Every message holds a link to change the subscription and a link to unsubscribe with one click. A subscriber who follows a tag receives the components of that tag, also components that get the tag later.
## Webhooks
A program can follow a status page through a webhook: an HTTPS address that receives every change as JSON. A webhook is registered by an operator through the [[Invantive Cloud Status/Interfaces/Management API|management API]] with a shared secret. Every request carries the header `X-Status-Signature` with `sha256=` followed by the HMAC-SHA256 of the body in hexadecimal, computed with the secret. A failed delivery is tried again.
The subscribers of a tenant are listed under [[Invantive Cloud Status/Menu/Subscribers|Subscribers]].
