  1. identified Nov 02, 2026, 08:26 PM UTC

    We’re currently investigating an issue affecting logging in to the GitBook app via SSO, as well as published sites that use authenticated access. Users may be unable to sign in, and visitors to authenticated sites may be unable to load content. Public sites are not affected and are loading as normal. Our team is actively working on a fix and we’ll share another update as soon as we have more information.
