Databox outage history

The GitHub data source integration has been temporarily disabled as a precautionary measure while we complete a security review. Existing GitHub connections have been disconnected and will show an error state. Data cannot be retrieved or refreshed from GitHub, and new GitHub connections cannot be established at this time. We will post updates here as the review progresses. If you have any questions, please reach out to our Support team via chat or [email protected].

The GitHub integration is fully available again. As part of restoring the integration, we also introduced security improvements that give customers more control over which repositories Databox can access. Existing connections can be reconnected, and historical metric data remains available. Data from the period while the integration was unavailable may be incomplete. Thank you for your patience. If you have any questions, please reach out to our Support team via chat or [email protected].

We are experiencing issues with performing scheduled syncs for metrics within Databox. This means that your most recent data may not be visible in Databox. The so-called on-demand syncs, which entail syncing data when you are creating or editing metrics, changing date ranges, etc., are not impacted. We are working on the matter and will share updates here soon.

The issue has been resolved. Scheduled syncs are now being performed as expected again. Thank you for your patience and understanding. If you have any questions, please reach out to our Support services via chat or [email protected].

We are experiencing a high volume of failed syncs for Reddit Ads metrics. It appears the behaviour originates from the API provider.

On September 24, 2025, Salesforce disabled all integrations between Salesforce and the Databox app as a precautionary measure after detecting suspicious activity involving a subset of customer connections. We immediately activated our incident response procedures and are working closely with the Salesforce security team to investigate further. As a precautionary step, we revoked all Salesforce authentication tokens associated with Databox to protect customer data. As a result: - All Salesforce data source connections in Databox are currently in an error state. - Data cannot be retrieved or refreshed from Salesforce. - Existing dashboards may display error messages, and new Salesforce data source connections cannot be established. An investigation into the reported suspicious activity is in progress. We will continue to provide regular updates. At this time, there is no estimated timeline for restoration of service. Thank you for your patience and understanding. If you have any questions, please contact our Support team via in-app chat or at [email protected].

Thank you for your continued patience. Our Security team is continuing to investigate suspicious activity involving a limited number of Databox customer connections with Salesforce. Salesforce integration remains unavailable at this time. Once the Salesforce integration is available again, we will share clear instructions on how to reconnect. Databox and Salesforce are investigating suspicious activity involving a subset of customer connections. As a precaution, we have deactivated all Salesforce connections for the time being. This means that integration with Salesforce is temporarily disabled and data updates from Salesforce are on hold. This step was taken to ensure the highest level of protection for our customers. We do not currently have a timeline to resume these services. We are working as quickly as possible to restore full functionality. We will update you as soon as we have more to share. In the meantime, if you have questions, please reach out to our Support team via chat or [email protected].

Our Security team, together with an external cybersecurity service provider, has concluded an investigation connected to suspicious activity involving a limited number of Databox customer connections with Salesforce. We have not identified any evidence that any customer’s Databox account or personal data was compromised. That makes this incident resolved, the Salesforce integration has been removed as a precaution measurement and will not be available until further notice. This means existing Salesforce connections are disabled in Databox and new connections cannot be established. We are working on re-enabling the Salesforce integration and will keep you updated once it’s available again.

Today, September 10th, 2025, we are releasing a new feature named Advanced Filtering. The release also includes migrating all Databox accounts to the new way of filtering data in Databox. This migration is taking longer than expected, so please note that certain temporary issues may appear in the app until the migration is fully completed: - Filtering may not be available during migration. - Users may experience slow or extended loading times - no data loading. Additionally, you may also experience the following filtering related issues: - Functionalities using breakdown by dimensions (e.g., Databoards, Reports, Data calculations, etc.) may show incorrect or missing values. - Certain datasets or spaces might not migrate properly and could temporarily appear empty or broken. - Missing historical values. - The web app might appear slower than usual. We are working hard at completing the migration as soon as possible. We will keep you posted on the progress.

The release and migration are now complete. All related issues have been resolved and should no longer occur. If you have any questions for us, please reach out to our Support services via chat or [email protected].

We are currently experiencing a delay in receiving data from the Google Search Console API. As of now, no new data has been reported since June 3rd. This issue appears to be on the side of the API provider (Google Search Console), and we are monitoring the situation closely. We will share further updates as soon as we receive more information or the API resumes normal data flow. Thank you for your patience and understanding. If you have any questions, please reach out to our Support services via chat or [email protected].

Due to an issue with Google’s API provider (see incident details at https://status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ow5i3PPK96RduMcb1SsW), we experienced failures in syncing data for custom metrics using the native BigQuery integration. This also caused delays in syncing custom metrics across other native SQL integrations. The issue associated with SQL integrations occurred between approximately 2:00 PM and 4:45 PM EDT (8:00 PM–10:45 PM CET). We are still seeing certain delays with receiving data from Google’s API provider.

Google has resolved the issue, and data is once again accessible via the API. Please note that the incident affected multiple Google Cloud products—not just Google Search Console. However, some data from the affected period (June 3rd–June 13th) may still be missing from the API. As a result, you might notice gaps or missing data in Databox for those dates. If you have any questions, feel free to contact our Support team via in-app chat or at [email protected].
