   ### We are grateful for your continued support and loyalty. We value your feedback and appreciate your patience as we worked to resolve this incident. **Type of Event** S2 – Not able to print or download badge from the web dashboard ### **Services/Modules Impacted** Eptura Visitor – Admin Dashboard Android Kiosk Badge Printing ### **Issue Summary/Background** On May 6, 2026, some customers experienced issues when printing or downloading visitor badges from the Eptura Visitor dashboard. During this time, badge print attempts returned an error message, and downloads did not generate a file. Badge printing from kiosk devices was also impacted. Our team quickly identified that this issue was affecting multiple customers and immediately began working on a resolution. A fix was developed, tested, and deployed the same day. Affected customers were contacted directly, and full functionality was restored within approximately four hours. ### **Root Cause** > A recent system update resulted in unexpected behavior that impacted badge printing and downloading across both the Visitor web dashboard and Android kiosks. As a result: * Badge print requests failed and returned an error message * Badge download requests appeared to complete, but the file was not successfully generated * Because a shared badge service supports both platforms, all badge generation workflows were affected Our engineering team quickly identified the issue and deployed a fix to production on May 6 as part of API version 9.27.1306. Badge printing and downloading functionality has since been fully restored. ### **Remediation** Our teams quickly investigated the issue and implemented temporary measures to reduce customer impact while a permanent fix was being prepared. A hotfix \(API version 9.27.1306\) was deployed to production on May 6, restoring badge printing and downloading functionality across both the Visitor web dashboard and Android kiosks. Following deployment, we completed extensive testing across multiple scenarios and confirmed that badge generation was functioning normally again. Support teams also worked directly with affected customers to verify resolution. To help prevent similar issues in the future, we have introduced: * Enhanced monitoring and alerting for badge generation services * Additional automated and end-to-end testing across web and kiosk workflows * Improved deployment validation and rollback procedures for shared services * Stronger release controls for critical functionality We also provided ongoing customer communications throughout the incident, including status updates, recovery timelines, and post-incident follow-up. ### **Timeline \(UTC\)** May 06, 2026 – 10:15 AM — First customer cases received May 06, 2026 – 10:30 AM — Initial triage and validation started May 06, 2026 – 11:00 AM — Issue reproduced internally; confirmed not account-specific May 06, 2026 – 11:10 AM — Incident escalated to Engineering May 06, 2026 – 11:20 AM — Engineering investigation initiated May 06, 2026 – 11:50 AM — Root cause identified \(API regression in badge service\) May 06, 2026 – 12:10 PM — Fix development started May 06, 2026 – 12:40 PM — Fix completed; QA validation initiated May 06, 2026 – 01:11 PM — Hotfix deployed to production \(API v9.27.1306\) May 06, 2026 – 01:20 PM — Post-deployment validation and monitoring started May 06, 2026 – 01:30 PM — Began customer outreach for verification May 06, 2026 – 05:41 PM — Majority of customers confirmed resolution; incident closed ### **Total Duration of Event** Approximately 4 hours 30 minutes ### **Preventive Actions** To help prevent similar issues in the future, we have implemented several improvements, including: * Enhanced testing across badge printing and download workflows on both the web dashboard and Android kiosks * Improved monitoring and alerting to quickly identify badge generation issues * Stronger pre-release validation and review processes for shared services * Safer deployment procedures with faster rollback capabilities if issues are detected All services are operating normally, and we will continue to monitor the platform closely to ensure consistent performance.
