Resolved after 58 minutes, affecting Glean service, on March 25, 2026.
The issue of authentication errors for Jira and Confluence is now resolved. The root cause was an IP block from Atlassian which was triggered by a spike in the number of user token requests. We have worked with Atlassian to get the IP block removed. We have also made fixes to fail gracefully when Atlassian starts returning errors for auth requests.
