You may notice delays in data syncing to Pinpoint, including in-mail messages and candidate exports. This will only impact customers using LinkedIn RSC features only. Core Pinpoint functionality is unaffected. We've identified the root cause and have a fix ready to deploy. We expect to roll this out this evening (UK time).

    We are aware of an issue affecting the resume/CV preview within the platform. Resumes may appear blank or display a browser blocking message when viewed inline. **Downloading resumes is unaffected** — you can continue to access candidate resumes using the download button. Our team has identified the cause and a fix is being deployed soon. We expect normal service to be restored shortly. We apologise for the inconvenience and will update this page once the fix is live.

    > What happened Users were unable to preview CVs and cover letters within the platform. The preview area appeared blank or showed a "blocked by browser" message. Downloading resumes continued to work normally throughout. > What caused it A security update was deployed overnight to protect admins from potentially harmful files. While the protection worked as intended, it had an unintended side effect - it also prevented the resume preview from loading correctly in all browsers. > What we did Identified the cause within minutes of being alerted Deployed a fix to restore normal resume previewing > What's next We have applied an alternative security protection using a different approach that doesn't affect the preview.

Temporary Service Disruption

    Earlier today, our platform experienced a temporary disruption due to a sudden and highly unusual surge in external traffic, significantly beyond anything we’ve seen before. This caused intermittent 503 errors and degraded performance for approximately 15 minutes. We acted quickly to contain the issue and restore full service, including scaling our infrastructure and working closely with our edge network provider to bolster caching and traffic protection systems. Service is now fully operational and stable. We’re continuing to implement further safeguards to ensure that similar patterns of abnormal traffic cannot affect platform availability in the future. While today’s disruption was limited in scope and duration, we recognise the importance of uninterrupted access to Pinpoint - and are treating this with the seriousness it deserves. We’ll continue monitoring closely and share any further updates here as needed.

    During routine maintenance to our search infrastructure, an update to the indexed data did not apply correctly, resulting in the inability to search for some resources in the admin application, such as candidates.

  2. identified Feb 17, 2025, 10:41 AM UTC

  3. identified Feb 18, 2025, 11:02 AM UTC

  4. resolved Feb 18, 2025, 04:29 PM UTC

    We have finished rolling out the fix for our search backend, and all search components are 100% functional again.

  5. postmortem Feb 27, 2025, 03:32 PM UTC

    We apologise for last week’s disruption to our typically swift and flexible search functionality. This was caused by routine maintenance of our search infrastructure over the weekend of February 15th and 16th, which encountered unexpected issues during data migration. The resolution of the issue was further complicated by the larger-than-anticipated size of some datasets and the difficulty of certain technical processes in keeping up. On Tuesday, February 18th, we also deployed several bug fixes that sped up our data processing and ensured that search failures did not make the UI unusable in some circumstances. Rest assured, the team has thoroughly reviewed the incident, and changes are already in the pipeline to prevent similar occurrences.
