    5. 11 Ιουνίου 2025 στις 3:21 μ.μ. UTCpostmortem

      On `2025-05-13` We experienced an outage affecting the Bitly Public API from `18:12Z` to `18:34Z`. This affected the ability to use the Bitly site or create new links, but did not impact usage of any existing links. The root cause was an error with a newly provisioned application secret which caused a fatal API service error that didn't fail our deployment pipeline. Our monitoring systems detected the issue quickly and we successfully rolled back to restore services. We have since taken steps towards resolving root causes, including improving secrets validation and faster failure detection during service initialization.

      From `16:41Z` - `23:56Z` operations on and access to user uploaded images failed. This affected user ability to add new images to QR codes and Pages, and affected display of user uploaded images on Page buttons and backgrounds. The root cause was human error by our service provider during the application of a policy change. A restriction intended for one object incorrectly applied at the bucket level. We understand the significant impact this has had and we are taking steps with our service provider to prevent this from happening again.

      On `2024-09-16` We experienced an outage affecting the Bitly Pages product from `19:03Z` to `21:11Z`. The root cause was an added dependency which impacted client-side rendering of Pages. This issue was not immediately detected by automated tests or monitors. From `20:27Z` to `21:11Z`, our oncall team activated a recovery system allowing Pages served on the `bit.ly` domain to recover. Some custom domains continued to see impact. The code change contributing to the outage was identified and rolled back allowing for full recovery of Page rendering. We have already taken steps in our automation to detect similar rendering problems before they can affect our customers. We apologize for the inconvenience this outage may have caused and understand the impact to our customers. We place a high value on the reliability of our services and are evaluating ways to improve our ability to mitigate this type of issue. We also understand the impact and potential confusion caused by the lack of messaging during this outage. We value highly and will work to improve our ability to communicate about incidents in a timely fashion.
