Resolved after 42 minutes, on July 17, 2026.

resolved Jul 17, 2026, 08:06 AM UTC

What happened: Between 01:43 and 02:25 UTC, some customers experienced slow or failed Helpdesk responses and intermittent login issues. Impact was limited to a single infrastructure cluster (us-east1-2607). Cause: A temporary fault in our cloud provider's storage layer, isolated to one data-center zone. This was an underlying infrastructure issue, not a Gorgias application problem or a change on our side. Resolution: Our systems recovered automatically via built-in failover. No data was lost and no manual intervention was needed. Next steps: We'll be reviewing the incident with our cloud provider and evaluating measures to further strengthen resilience against this class of issue. We apologize for the disruption, you can reach out to your support contact with any questions.
