   We are aware that some users are currently experiencing issues with the Actionstep Gmail Add-on and logging into the Actionstep Mobile App using their Google/Gmail account. We believe this may be related to a recent Google Workspace outage that affected multiple Google products. While Google has since resolved their incident (https://www.google.com/appsstatus/dashboard/incidents/vagmms1y6yRxwg6RMQZp), we are continuing to investigate and monitor the impact on Actionstep's side. Our team is investigating this as a priority and will work to restore the system functions to operate normally. We will provide further updates as our investigation progresses.

   We are communicating to provide further information on the issues that affected the Actionstep Gmail Add-on platform which started the 1st of June, 2026 and confirm that the issue is now resolved. What happened: The Gmail Add-on was running on the deprecated Google Apps Script Rhino runtime. Google ended support for the Rhino runtime, which caused the add-on to fail before any app logic could execute. What we did: Our team migrated the Apps Script project to the V8 runtime, created a new deployment version, and redeployed the Gmail Add-on. The add-on is now fully operational. What we're doing to prevent this: We have reviewed our runtime dependencies to ensure we are not relying on deprecated infrastructure going forward. We apologise for any disruption this caused and thank you for your patience. Regards, Actionstep Support Team

   We are informing you that our team is aware of a connectivity issue affecting the Actionstep system for some users on the Sky internet service provider, beginning on 04/12/2025 at 2:30 pm GMT. Users impacted by this issue may see a “Can't reach this page” message when attempting to access the login page. Our team is actively working with affected customers to identify the underlying cause, but we also recommend contacting your internet service provider for more information if any changes were made. As a temporary workaround, you can use your mobile phone as a Wi Fi hotspot to connect and access the system. We will communicate with you regularly regarding the progress of this work to ensure you are back online as soon as possible.

   We are providing an update on the connectivity issue affecting the Actionstep system for some users on the Sky internet service provider, which began on 04/12/2025 at 2:30 pm GMT. Impacted users may continue to see a “Can’t reach this page” message when attempting to access the login page. At this stage, we still believe the issue is related to Sky’s network. We have seen cases where restarting the router and ensuring the web browser (such as Chrome) is fully up to date has resolved the problem for some customers.

   We are continuing to work closely with affected customers to gather more information. If you are still seeing the “Can’t reach this page” message, we recommend contacting your internet service provider to check whether any recent changes have been made. As a temporary workaround, you can connect via your mobile phone’s Wi Fi hotspot to access the system.

4. 5 decembrie 2025 la 15:43 UTCresolved

   The investigation has confirmed that this connectivity problem is not being caused by the Actionstep platform, but is instead linked to certain internet service providers, particularly Sky Broadband. We recommend contacting your ISP to check for any recent network or routing changes that could be affecting access to the Actionstep login page. You may also find more details in this Sky Community thread, which covers problems reaching sites hosted in the AWS ap-southeast-2 region: https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Certain-web-addresses-fail-to-load/td-p/5159647. Our login page is hosted in ap-southeast-2, and these connections are currently timing out primarily for Sky Broadband customers. None of your Actionstep data is stored in the ap-southeast-2 region, only the login page is served from there. As soon as you click your system tile, you are redirected to the data centre where your system actually resides (for UK customers, this is the UK region). Your data has not moved and is not being stored outside your designated region. As a temporary workaround, you can use a mobile hotspot to access the login page and sign in, then switch back to your normal Wi‑Fi to continue working once you are logged in. If you need any further help, our support team is available via ticket at https://support.actionstep.com.

   **Post-Incident Summary:** United Kingdom – External Connectivity Issue – December 4, 2025 **Incident Overview** On December 4, 2025, some customers in the United Kingdom – primarily those using Sky Broadband – experienced difficulty accessing the Actionstep login page. This login page \(also known as the Launchpad\) is hosted in the ap-southeast-2 region; however, no customer data for UK systems is stored or processed in this region. Once a user selects their system, they are directed to the appropriate UK/region-specific server where their data resides. Our investigation confirmed that this incident was caused entirely by a Sky ISP routing/connectivity issue preventing requests from reaching a wide variety of services hosted in ap-southeast-2. Actionstep also contacted AWS, who confirmed we were one of hundreds of services affected by the Sky outage. There was no issue with the Actionstep platform, AWS infrastructure, or our regional hosting. The issue began at approximately 2:30 pm GMT on December 4, 2025, and normal access was fully restored by December 9, 2025 **Impact** Customers in the UK using Sky Broadband were intermittently or completely unable to reach the Actionstep login page due to Sky’s network routing issue. Customers using other ISPs, or those switching to an alternative connection such as mobile data, were able to access Actionstep normally. At all times, the Actionstep platform itself remained operational. **Resolution** Once Sky resolved their connectivity issue, normal access to the Actionstep login page was restored. Throughout the incident, Actionstep systems continued to perform normally, and users connecting from unaffected networks experienced no disruption. **Next Steps** No Actionstep changes are required, as the root cause was external to our systems and infrastructure. If customers encounter similar symptoms in the future, we recommend testing an alternative connection \(such as a mobile hotspot\) and contacting their ISP to confirm whether a localised network issue is occurring. **Acknowledgement** We recognise that this caused inconvenience for affected customers and appreciate everyone’s patience while Sky resolved their network routing issue. Ensuring reliable access to Actionstep remains our priority.

   **Post-Incident Summary: EU-West-1 \(UK\) – System Outage – October 17, 2024** ### Incident Overview On October 17, 2024, Actionstep experienced a service outage affecting customers in the UK region \(EU-West-1\). A configuration update inadvertently restricted access to a required system resource, which caused login failures and prevented users from accessing the platform. ### Impact All UK-based customers were unable to log in or use Actionstep for about one hour. Internal testing environments in the same region were also affected. ### Resolution The engineering team identified the configuration issue, restored access to the affected resource, and confirmed that all systems were operating normally. Service was fully restored once access was verified across multiple customer accounts. ### Next Steps We are improving our change control and rollout processes to ensure configuration updates are tested and deployed safely, with enhanced communication and monitoring to detect issues earlier. ### Acknowledgement We sincerely apologize for the disruption this caused to our UK customers. Ensuring consistent access and reliability remains our highest priority.

    **Post-Incident Summary: North America \(US-East-1\) – AWS Outage Impact – October 20, 2025** **Incident Overview** On October 20, 2025, Actionstep services in the US-East-1 region were affected by a widespread outage within Amazon Web Services \(AWS\). This incident originated from AWS infrastructure and impacted many cloud-based platforms globally, not just Actionstep. As a result, customers experienced degraded performance and intermittent downtime across the Practice Management and Legal Accounting platforms. **Impact** The outage occurred between approximately **9:39 a.m. and 2:19 p.m. MDT**. During this period, some customers in North America experienced slow performance, timeouts, and temporary unavailability of certain features. The issue was entirely due to an AWS infrastructure failure and was not caused by Actionstep systems or changes. **Resolution** AWS restored functionality in the affected region, after which Actionstep systems automatically recovered. Our engineering team closely monitored the recovery process and validated all environments to confirm full stability and normal operation. For more information about this outage, please see the AWS website: [Service health - Oct 20, 2025 | AWS Health Dashboard | Global](https://health.aws.amazon.com/health/status) **Next Steps** We are reviewing our communication and monitoring processes to ensure faster updates and improved transparency during third-party service disruptions.
