We're seeing control plane slowness and dashboard failures. Data plane queries to control plane (for non-cached queries) were failling intermittently.
We've resolved the issue, and are monitoring now
Some JWKS URLs are inaccessible from the Management plane infrastructure. The team is working to identify the root cause.
All services are up, we're monitoring and will publish an analysis soon.
SaaS AI Gateway recovered
An upstream code change impacted the budget functonality for a few minutes.
An upstream code change caused a brief degradation in Portkey’s budget-related API functionality. During this window, requests depending on budget evaluation or enforcement may have experienced unexpected behavior. Core API routing remained operational, and Logs were not affected. The change has been identified and mitigated. We are continuing to monitor API behavior to ensure full stability.
The brief degradation affecting budget-related API functionality has been resolved. The issue was caused by an upstream code change and affected requests relying on budget evaluation or enforcement. Core API routing remained available throughout, and Logs were not affected. We have mitigated the change, verified recovery, and will continue monitoring to ensure stability.
We had a brief authentication issue on the control plane today. What happened: Between 9:50 AM - 10:45 AM UTC users who had signed out couldn't sign back in using email + password. New signups were also affected during this window. SSO and other auth methods continued to work normally.
Current status: Fully resolved. Email/password auth and signups are working as expected.
We experienced degraded performance affecting the Portkey Dashboard and Prompt Render API between 2:23 AM - 3:38 AM IST on January 22, 2026. Impact: Dashboard timeouts and slow loading for some users. The Prompt Render API experienced intermittent failures. What is NOT affected: The AI Gateway remained fully operational throughout. All inference requests and model calls continued to work normally with no failures.
Dashboard and /prompt/render APIs are up now. Root cause: An unusually high volume of SCIM provisioning updates created unexpected load on our control plane database. Resolution: The issue has been resolved and all services are operating normally. We are implementing additional rate limiting and scaling measures to prevent similar occurrences.
A code update introduced a new metric that occasionally resulted in failed Clickhouse inserts, causing logs to not appear in the UI.
Logs are working as expected now.
Portkey is impacted by the global Cloudflare outage. SaaS Gateway and the control plane are facing intermittent failures. We are actively investigating the issue and working to get the system back up.
Service is back up now.
