    ### **Overview** On May 5th, 2026, between 6:00 PM and May 6th, 2026, 1:30 AM UTC, some customers experienced delays with identity provider \(IDP\) profile updates. During this time, updates to user profile information through SAML-based sign-ins may have taken longer than expected to appear across Articulate services.

  10. postmortem Apr 24, 2026, 12:48 PM UTC

    **Overview** On February 24–26, 2026, some Vimeo videos embedded in Rise 360 courses did not display correctly. Instead, affected videos showed a black screen while audio continued to play. This behavior occurred in both the Rise 360 authoring environment \(including preview\) and in previously published courses viewed by learners in learning management systems \(LMSs\). The issue was traced to a change in the behavior of a third-party embed rendering provider used by Rise 360 to process multimedia embeds. This provider rendered Vimeo content in a way that disrupted the video player integration, causing the video to not display while the audio continued to play. A workaround was released that allowed Vimeo embeds to bypass the third-party rendering provider. After the provider implemented a fix and cleared their cache, normal playback behavior was restored. **Incident Details and Timeline of Events** **February 24, 2026** * **22:40 UTC** – Reports were received that Vimeo embeds in Rise displayed a black video frame while audio continued to play. The behavior was reproduced in both authoring/preview and already-published course output. * **22:50 UTC** – An internal incident triage channel was created to coordinate investigation and response. **February 25, 2026** * **13:30 UTC** – A support request was submitted to the third-party embed rendering provider used by Rise for embedded multimedia. * **15:18 UTC** – The incident was escalated to SEV2. * **15:55 UTC** – Public status communication was updated to indicate the issue had been identified and service was degraded. * **17:30 UTC** – Additional attempts were made to reach the provider through multiple contact channels. * **21:36 UTC** – A workaround was released that bypassed the embed rendering provider for Vimeo embeds. This workaround required affected courses to be republished and was deployed behind a feature flag. **February 26, 2026** * **01:31 UTC** The workaround feature flag was enabled for all customers, and guidance on the workaround was shared with customers. * **01:57 UTC** – Incident status was updated to monitoring. * **18:50 UTC** – Direct contact was established with a member of the provider’s team. * **19:39 UTC** – The provider began investigating the issue. * **21:22 UTC** – The provider reported the issue resolved. * **21:53 UTC** – The provider invalidated their CDN cache, and recovery was confirmed. * **22:23 UTC** – Community communications were updated to indicate the issue had been resolved. * **22:35 UTC** – Incident status was updated to resolved. **February 27, 2026** * **15:30 UTC** – The temporary workaround was reverted and the standard integration path between Rise, the embed provider, and Vimeo was restored. ### **Technical Context** Rise 360 uses a third-party service to process and render embedded multimedia links. During the incident, the provider used a corrupted video player, which interfered with the embedded Vimeo videos. This behavior interfered with the video player integration used to control playback, causing video frames to fail to render while audio continued to play. Because the embed rendering occurs at runtime through the provider, the behavior affected both newly authored content and previously published Rise 360 courses. **What We’re Improving** Following the incident, several improvements were identified to reduce the likelihood or impact of similar situations: * **Reducing external runtime dependencies:** Evaluating changes to ensure that published Rise courses rely primarily on Articulate-controlled infrastructure unless authors explicitly opt into third-party services. * **Embed rendering architecture:** Assessing approaches for handling embedded media that reduce dependency on external embed processing services. * **Contingency paths for media embeds:** Implementing mechanisms that allow embedded media to bypass intermediary services when needed, enabling faster mitigation if provider behavior changes. * **Operational readiness for third-party services:** Ensuring service credentials, account access, and escalation contacts for external providers are maintained and readily accessible to support faster incident coordination. These efforts are intended to strengthen resilience around embedded media playback and improve response flexibility when third-party services change behavior.

  11. postmortem Dec 10, 2025, 12:27 AM UTC

    ### **Overview** On December 3, 2025, our identity provider experienced an unexpected service disruption that affected Articulate’s login systems. During this period, customers were unable to sign in or access features that rely on authentication. The issue originated from an outage within a feature of our identity provider related to custom domain handling. Once identified, our team implemented a mitigation to bypass the affected path and restore stable access. ### **Incident Details and Timeline of Events** The following timeline summarizes the key moments of the incident at a high level. ### **Impact:** * Customer login to Articulate services * Access to products and administrative account functionality * Authentication-dependent actions across multiple areas of the platform ### **Timeline** * **December 3, 2025 07:21 UTC — First wave of authentication errors identified** Monitoring systems alerted the team to errors related to login, users were unable to authenticate. Our Identity provider confirmed outage on their end. * **December 3, 2025 08:13 UTC — Issues with identity provider resolved** No new errors were detected and full recovery was observed. * **December 3, 2025 13:08 UTC — Issues with identity provider return** Monitoring systems alerted the team to further login issues, users were unable to authenticate. Full outage status was posted. * **December 3, 2025 14:00 UTC — Dependent identity system features identified as the root cause** With the help of support from our identity provider, issues with specific features were diagnosed as the root cause of our authentication issues. A mitigation was identified and implementation began. * **December 3, 2025 14:53 UTC — Mitigation applied, services recover** Our mitigation was applied to our platform and full recovery was observed. * **December 3, 2025 17:23 UTC — Identity provider reports recovery** Our identity provider reported full recovery on their end, we formally resolved our outage status. ### **What We’re Improving** * Reducing **dependency on** affected identity system features To eliminate the risk associated with this type of upstream outage, we are in the process of phasing out our use of the impacted feature with our identity provider.
