This resolved the issue temporarily, but the same problem has come back within an hour or two. We have opened support requests with Atlassian and Google to investigate further.
- resolved Oct 12, 2025, 07:17 PM UTC
Atlassian has identified an internal issue and applied a fix to mitigate it, so email processing issues are now resolved. Since the issue was with authentication, emails not processed during the outage should now be caught up. https://developer.status.atlassian.com/incidents/7dp5zv6byqgd

- investigating Mar 14, 2025, 07:39 PM UTC
SUNY Online has both become aware and reproduced an error that occurs when attempting to publish grades and sorting by name in the Grades tool within Brightspace after the March 2025 Release. This issue is not unique to SUNY as other D2L clients are experiencing this issue after this update was applied to all D2L production environments. As a result, SUNY Online opened a priority 1 ticket with D2L support and ensured that it has been escalated internally via our Technical Account Managers. We will reach out again with any additional information, including any possible workarounds, as we receive it.
- identified Mar 15, 2025, 05:33 PM UTC
D2L deployed a hotfix to address the error users were encountering when publishing grades. SUNY has tested and confirmed that users no longer receive an error message when publishing grades.

Although both issues are related to the Grades tool, the sorting issue will be addressed in a separate patch that is currently being developed by D2L.
- resolved Mar 21, 2025, 05:32 PM UTC
We were notified that a hotfix was put into place around 1:15am this morning to resolve the sorting by last name issue in the gradebook.
