Is FedEx API down?
As of September 23, 2026, FedEx API status: 4 operational across 4 monitored platforms. Last resolved incident: September 20, 2026. Over the last 90 days the worst-performing platform for FedEx was Shippo, at 95.91% reported uptime. Shipzil tracks FedEx by cross-referencing status reported by EasyPost, Shippo, ShipStation and ShipEngine — four platforms run by three independent companies.

Reported uptime, 90 days
Where a platform published component state changes, the window is measured from those — when each component actually left and returned to operational. Otherwise it falls back to when the incident was opened and closed, which overstates it. Either way this is uptime as reported by the platforms, not independently measured: there may be outages nobody reported. Account-surface incidents and standing advisories are excluded, since neither is carrier API downtime.
Of the 127 carrier-affecting incidents behind these figures, 44 (34.6%) had their carriers inferred from the incident title rather than a component the platform tagged. And a platform that reports less looks better here: Shippo 54, EasyPost 39, ShipEngine 25, ShipStation 9 incidents recorded respectively.
Measured reachability
Shipzil's own rate checks rather than a platform report: how often a request to each platform returned at least one bookable FedEx rate. Only platforms whose monitoring account can quote FedEx appear.
| Platform | Returned a rate | Checks | Last seen |
|---|---|---|---|
| EasyPost | 100.0% | 290/290 |
A check the platform never answered is excluded from these counts rather than charged to FedEx — which is why a platform with unanswered checks shows a smaller total than the rest. Those are the platform's own failures and are listed on its page. Percentages are withheld below 20 checks.
Platform-reported API response time, 24h
Published by the platform about its own API, not measured here and not specific to FedEx. Shipzil's own measurement of a FedEx rate request through each platform is in Measured reachability above, and is typically several times larger because it includes the carrier call. A platform that stops publishing keeps its last reading for up to two hours before it is dropped, so each row states when it was last published.
Platform-reported error rate, 24h
Published by the platform about itself. Only platforms that publish this appear, so absence here means a platform does not report it — not that its error rate is zero.

Never marked resolved, but the platform has dropped them from its status feed. Excluded from uptime beyond the point it stopped reporting them.
