Down Detector integration

I was wondering if someone is able to integrate downdetector.com into HA. Example: Downdetcor sees that there are more than usual outages at YouTube, then HA sends a notification to my phone telling me. Downdector does have an API I just don’t know how to use it, still very new to HA and stuff. Downdetector API

Don’t forget to vote for your own request.

thanks, do you know if this integration exists somewhere?

Nope. Does not look like it.

There’s nothing here, or here.

Though that second one did turn up a pre-existing very similar feature request.

I’m tempted to close this FR as a duplicate and to ask you to post to that other FR adding the downdetector site making a note that it has an API (and vote there).

Looking at down detector API, looks like it’s inquery/paid only
which means the only way to get the data would be scraping which i don’t think this community will like

Should someone have a working scraper or similar, I could use this integration

Currently looking for alternatives
