# API Status Tools

Discover real-time insights with our new tools section, designed to keep you informed about the status of crucial APIs like Anthropic and OpenAI. Even though our robust system of Cascading LLMs (Large Language Models) is engineered to provide seamless performance, fluctuations in API responsiveness can happen. 

With the API Status tools feature, you can quickly verify whether these key providers are experiencing any disruptions. This transparency ensures that you can manage expectations and maintain workflow efficiency. It's not just practical; it's also quite fascinating to monitor the pulse of the technology powering your projects! <br>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.botmockups.com/botmockups/updates/new-feature-drops/api-status-tools.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
