We are investigating an intermittent issue with locale detection–based parsing. Requests to the Resume Classification API may be affected when the Content-Language header is omitted. Some requests that include the header may also be affected. Affected endpoints: - POST /resume/parse - POST /resume/parse/versions/{version} - POST /resume/classify - POST /resume/classify/versions/{version} We sincerely apologize for any disruption this may cause. Our engineering team is actively working to restore full functionality. We will provide another update as soon as we have more information or service is restored. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
