Apify outage history

Some Actor runs were experiencing degraded performance, slower start and finish times, and elevated error rates. The issue is resolved.

We are currently experiencing degraded platform performance. Actors can be slower to start or time out. If your Actors time out, you can resurrect them. We are investigating the cause of this degradation and will post the update as soon as possible.

We have identified the issue and we are working on recovery. The Actor performance is still degraded until we resolve the underlying issue.

We have resolved the underlying issue and the Actor performance has recovered, we are now monitoring the situation. If your Actor runs timed out, you can resurrect them.

This incident has been resolved.

We are seeing elevated error rates on the SHADER proxy group connected with issues with one of our upstream providers. If you use this proxy group directly (not through the virtual AUTO proxy group), please switch to using another group (such as BUYPROXIES94952) temporarily.

A fix has been implemented upstream and the SHADER proxy group has recovered. We continue monitoring the situation for any further disruption.

This incident has been resolved.

The Google SERP proxy is experiencing increased response times and elevated error rates. We are investigating the issue.

The performance problems are caused by issues with our upstream providers. We are in contact with them to find a solution.

We have applied partial fixes to improve the situation and lower the error rate. We are still seeing an elevated error rate and are continuing to work on reaching a full resolution.

The success rate and latency is continuing to improve to almost normal levels, we expect full recovery soon.

We have seen a full recovery of the SERP proxy success rates. We will continue monitoring for any future degradation.

This incident has been resolved.

We are experiencing slow requests handling for Google SERP proxy. We're investigating the issue.

The Google SERP Proxy is not processing almost any requests or is very slow. We're investigating the issue.

The Google SERP proxy is working, but with slower-than-usual response times. We continue to investigate the issue.

The Google SERP Proxy is stabilized, and we continue to monitor its performance.

Actor Standby mode has a higher error rate and may require more retries than usual. We are investigating the cause. https://docs.apify.com/actors/running/standby

The problem has been resolved. Impact was an increased error rate at the Actor Standby API, not other component was affected. There was no downtime during the period of the incident.

We are currently investigating timing out operations on our API caused by slow database operations due to cluster changes.

Slow database operations continue to impact our systems. API performance has improved, but Actor runs are currently timing out due to reduced worker capacity.

We are now monitoring the situation. Worker capacity improved and is now able to handle starting Actor runs.

Our database cluster performance has further degraded, and the whole platform is facing a major outage. We will keep informing you as the situation progresses.

We have identified the issue and are working towards recovery. The system is operational, but the capacity is capped, resulting in Actor runs being buffered in the "ready" state and a large portion of them timing out.

We are continuing to work on a fix for this issue.

Actors are now fully operational, and the system is processing all the runs in time.

All systems are operational. We expect the database to fully recover in 4 hours (1 am UTC). We are monitoring the platform's performance. We apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused.

The database is fully recovered, and all systems are operational. We apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused. We are currently implementing new measures to ensure this won't happen again.

A higher-than-usual number of Actor runs are being migrated between servers, which may cause brief interruptions or restarts for some runs. We are currently investigating the issue.

The cause of the elevated Actor run migrations has been identified. We are resolving the cause.

A fix has been applied and Actor run migrations are returning to normal. We apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused. We take this problem seriously and will be taking steps to avoid such issues occurring in the future.

All systems are operational, and we apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused.

We're seeing degraded performance of Google SERP requests. Responses may take longer than usual. We're investigating the issue.

The issue has been resolved. Both the response time and success rate have returned to normal levels.

We're investigating the issue.

The issue has been identified, and we are resolving it.

We have identified and resolved the root cause of the issue. No data loss occurred, as all webhooks are automatically retried. A backlog of pending webhooks remains and is currently being processed. We are monitoring the situation closely.

Webhooks are operational, and we apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused.

We're investigating the issue.

We are continuing to investigate this issue.

We have identified and resolved the current problems with our in-memory cache. We're monitoring the situation.

This incident has been resolved.

We experienced degraded performance on our proxy due to an unexpected increase in load. This caused slower response times for some users. The issue lasted approximately 5 minutes and has been fully resolved. All systems are now operating normally. We apologize for the inconvenience.

OAuth sign-in to mcp.apify.com from clients using CIMD with loopback redirects (currently Claude Code) is failing due to a regression. Existing connections and other clients (claude.ai, Cursor, Codex) are unaffected (the later use DCR). We are sorry for the inconvenience and working on a fix.

We have implemented a fix for the OAuth flow, and the connections are now working normally.

We're experiencing outage of key-value store. We're investigation the cause of the issue

A fix has been implemented and we are monitoring the results.

We've resolved an issue where a key-value store API update caused some Actor runs to time out. If your Actor run timed out you can get it back by resurrecting it. There was no data loss. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

We have identified an issue causing degraded performance in the Console UI and in some API requests. We have implemented a fix, and the performance should stabilize soon.

Console UI and API performance should be back to standard levels. We will monitor the situation while we investigate the incident's root cause.

This incident has been resolved.

We're experiencing degraded performance. We're investigation the cause of the issue

We're experiencing a full outage of Actors and API. Actors might not be starting. Our engineering team is investigating the root cause of the issue.

We've identified the root cause of the issue, and our engineering team is monitoring the metrics. Console, Actors, and API should be stable now.

This incident has been resolved.

We are investigating slow API response times due to underlying database issues.

We’ve identified the root cause and have resolved a part of the issue, but the system has not yet fully stabilized. The Actor Runs list endpoint (https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/:actorId/runs) remains the most impacted, along with related views in the Apify Console, where we are still actively working on a fix. Additional endpoints may also experience degraded performance. At this time, we cannot provide an estimate for full resolution.

Our systems are currently experiencing a major disruption. We sincerely apologize and are actively investigating the root cause. We will provide updates as more information becomes available.

Service has partially recovered, and we are currently experiencing degraded performance. We are actively investigating the issue and working on a fix. We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.

The Apify platform is fully recovered. The incident followed a database cluster sharding procedure that resulted in a performance impact on some operations. There was no data loss. The Actor run list API endpoint experienced performance issues between 10:00 and 20:30 UTC, followed by a partial outage of all services from 20:30 to 21:10. Now everything is back to normal, and we are monitoring the situation. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.

All systems are operational, and we apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused. We are currently implementing new measures to make sure that this won't happen again.

We are informing you about a security incident that occurred on March 6, 2026. Based on our investigation to date, there is no indication that any customer data was affected or compromised. However, we want to share the information we have with you as part of our ongoing commitment to transparency. What happened At approximately 21:52 UTC on March 6, 2026, we detected that the GitHub account of one of our employees had been compromised as part of a broader, known malware campaign. The attacker used this access to inject malicious code into multiple branches across our GitHub repositories via force-pushed commits. Thanks to branch protection rules in place on our repositories, no changes were merged into any default or protected branches. How we responded Upon detection, we immediately suspended the affected account and blocked all associated access across our internal systems. Our engineering team then identified all affected branches and reverted every malicious commit. Full cleanup was completed by approximately 00:32 UTC on March 7, 2026. What we have investigated We have since conducted a thorough review of our GitHub audit logs, AWS CloudTrail logs, Google Workspace logs, and all other important resources. All activity reviewed was consistent with expected patterns — no unauthorized access, no suspicious logins, and no signs of data exfiltration were identified beyond the GitHub repository commits, which have been fully reverted. Despite no signs of malicious access, we also completed the rotation of secrets and the scan of all working machines used by Apify employees. Impact on your data Based on our investigation to date, there is no evidence that any customer data was accessed or affected by this incident. The attack was limited to source code repository branches, all of which were protected and have been restored. We take the security of your data seriously and will continue analyzing the impact of the issue and monitoring for any further indicators of compromise. We will provide an update if our ongoing investigation reveals any new findings. Please don't hesitate to reach out to [email protected] if you have any questions. Sincerely, The Apify security team
