4. postmortem Feb 10, 2026, 05:08 PM UTC

   ### **Affected Systems and Regions** On 2026-02-04, Learnosity experienced an availability incident impacting Questions API access for customers in the AMER region. The issue began at approximately 18:02 UTC and was formally declared resolved at 18:51 UTC. The total duration of customer impact was approximately 49 minutes. ### **Investigation** The issue was first detected when the Items API attempted to initialize the dependent Questions API. The incident was traced to a misconfiguration within the content delivery network servicing the AMER region, causing a SSL certificate error.. During a certificate management task, the distribution responsible for serving [_questions.learnosity.com_](http://questions.learnosity.com) was configured with an SSL certificate that did not match the _\*.learnosity.com_ domain nomenclature. This caused browsers and client systems to reject connections to the affected subdomain. ### **Resolution** Once the issue was identified, the response team updated the affected distribution to use the correct SSL certificate. Service was fully restored after the change was completed. ### **Prevention** Learnosity is strengthening certificate deployment and validation processes to ensure that domain mappings are verified prior to rollout. Additional safeguards have been added to prevent cross-domain certificate assignments and to improve monitoring for sudden traffic drops that may indicate certificate-related failures.
