We check Gmail's listed URL (https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/) once a day. History started when Gmail was first checked, so new entries show fewer than 30 days.

Gmail API not working for you?

  1. Gmail needs OAuth. A 401 or 403 usually means a missing, expired or mis-sent credential: check whether it belongs in a header or the query string.
  2. A 429 response means you're being rate-limited. Slow down, cache responses, and respect any Retry-After header.
  3. If calls fail only in the browser with a CORS error, Gmail may not allow cross-origin requests. Call it from your server instead.
  4. If it works from one network but not another, check firewalls, VPNs and regional blocks.
  5. Check the provider's documentation, status page or social accounts for planned maintenance or a changed endpoint.

Gmail API status FAQ

Is Gmail API down right now?

Gmail answered our last daily check (Oct 24, 2026, 12:25 UTC) in 1191 ms with HTTP 200. This page also runs a live check from our server when you open it, so you can see whether Gmail is responding at this moment.

How do you check whether Gmail API is up?

Once a day our checker requests Gmail's listed URL (https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/) and records whether it answers within 15 seconds. Answers like 401 (needs a key), 403 (blocks bots) or 429 (rate-limited) count as up, because the server responded. The listed URL is often the documentation page, so an API endpoint can occasionally fail while its docs stay up.

What can I use if Gmail API is down?

Free Business APIs that were up at their last check include Legal Sandbox Georgia, Verif Entreprise FR, KontragentPro. See the full list of Gmail alternatives for a comparison.

Why does Gmail API work for others but not for me?

Gmail needs OAuth. A 401 or 403 usually means a missing, expired or mis-sent credential: check whether it belongs in a header or the query string. A 429 response means you're being rate-limited. Slow down, cache responses, and respect any Retry-After header. If calls fail only in the browser with a CORS error, Gmail may not allow cross-origin requests. Call it from your server instead.
