Since approximately 30 minutes ago, a subset of API requests are failing with 401 Unauthorized errors. Requests authenticated with older, long-lived API tokens are affected; sign-ins through the web app are working normally. Customers may notice: - API integrations receiving 401 errors (including creating and polling optimizations) - Driver location updates missing from live tracking views - Delivery notifications (SMS/email) sending successfully but without their tracking links
- identified Aug 25, 2026, 08:52 PM UTC
We have identified the cause and we are fixing the affected services now.
- monitoring Aug 25, 2026, 08:53 PM UTC
The fix is complete as of now. API requests with existing tokens are authenticating normally again, and driver location updates and notification tracking links have resumed. We are monitoring error rates to confirm full recovery.
