Notify the user of a future service outage

Display a clear message to inform users about an upcoming service outage, including the date, time, and expected impact on service availability.

When to use

Use this pattern when:

  • Scheduled maintenance will affect service availability
  • Users need advance notice about system downtime
  • You need to communicate specific dates and times for an outage
  • Users should know how to get support during the outage

Considerations

  • Use the “important” notification type to draw attention
  • Include specific dates, times, and duration of the outage
  • Provide contact information for questions or concerns
  • Place the notification prominently on affected pages
