Component Group Default Open
Apr 09, 2026 | by openstatus | [statuspage]

You can now control which component groups are expanded by default when visitors land on your status page.
Previously, only the first group was auto-expanded. Now, each group has an "Open by default" toggle in the dashboard so you can choose exactly which groups your visitors see first.
- Per-group control - toggle "Open by default" for any component group in the status page editor
- Multiple groups - expand as many or as few groups as you want
- API support - set
