  3. resolved Apr 06, 2026, 09:12 PM UTC

    This incident has been resolved.

  4. postmortem Apr 07, 2026, 12:17 AM UTC

    **What happened** All modals and dialogs across the CircleCI application became invisible. They were being rendered correctly in the background, but were not visible to users. This affected approval jobs, SSH key management, and other settings pages across the app. **Root cause** The issue was introduced by an upgrade to our internal design system library. The new version added animation support to modal components using a library called Framer Motion. These animations are designed to fade modals in from invisible \(`opacity: 0`\) to visible \(`opacity: 1`\) when opened. However, the animation logic reads open/close state from a specific React context that is only available when modals are opened via a particular component \(`DialogTrigger`\). Our application manages modal state differently, passing open/close state directly via props, so that context was never populated. As a result, every modal in the app was permanently stuck in the "hidden" animation state and never transitioned to visible. **Resolution** We reverted the design system upgrade to restore the previous working version, which resolved the issue immediately. We are now working on a follow-up fix that will upgrade Framer Motion properly, by ensuring all modal components receive the required context. **Impact** The issue affected all modal dialogs across project settings, org settings, user settings, plans & payments, and other areas of the app for the duration of the incident. No data was lost or corrupted. The underlying functionality was intact, just inaccessible via the UI.

  2. identified Apr 01, 2026, 11:58 AM UTC

    We are continuing to see very high error rates from GitHub's `GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/commits` API.

  3. monitoring Apr 01, 2026, 12:12 PM UTC

    GitHub's `GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/commits` API has appeared to recover. We will continue to monitor this.

Pipelines — Workflow Creation Errors and Missing GitHub Status Updates

Resolved

Duration
Timeline · 1 update
  1. resolved Mar 18, 2026, 05:15 PM UTC

    On March 18, 2026, customers using workflows configured with serial groups or terminal job dependencies experienced two brief periods of disruption due to a code change. Between approximately 12:08 and 12:35 UTC, affected pipelines encountered errors when creating workflows. For pipelines created in a second window from approximately 14:23 to 14:35 UTC, GitHub status updates were not delivered for some completed jobs. Long-running workflows triggered during this window may encounter these errors after the resolution time. The underlying change was reverted in both cases. All systems have been operating normally since 14:35 UTC.

Duration

Affected: CircleCI Insights
Timeline · 2 updates
  1. investigating Mar 16, 2026, 03:02 AM UTC

    We are investigating an issue where the Insights API and dashboard are returning outdated metrics for reporting windows longer than 24 hours (last 7 days, last 30 days, last 60 days, last 90 days). The last-24-hours window is unaffected and returning current data. This issue is limited to the display of aggregated metrics on Insights Page only. All pipeline pages, job runs, and builds remain fully operational and are not impacted. We will provide updates as our investigation progresses.

  2. resolved Mar 16, 2026, 03:52 AM UTC

    Our engineering team has identified the root cause and has fixes prepared. Due to the nature of the data refresh process, the fix will require a deployment followed by a full refresh cycle before data is fully up to date. We expect that the data should be available within 24-36 hours. The last-24-hours reporting window continues to work normally, and all pipeline pages and job runs remain unaffected.
