If you are still experiencing issues, please reach out to our support team at support@staffbase.com.

**Summary** As our investigation is now complete, we would like to provide details about an issue where new users created via SSO were not automatically assigned to their Conditional Groups. The incident was initially assessed as potentially affecting all systems. Following our investigation, we confirmed that only the European System was impacted. Our team identified the root cause, deployed a fix on June 2, 2026, and confirmed full resolution on June 3, 2026. **What Happened** Following a recent update, the process responsible for assigning users to Conditional Groups based on their profile attributes was not triggered correctly during SSO account creation. New users were created successfully and their profile information was transferred, but the subsequent group assignment step was silently skipped. Our team identified the issue and implemented a fix that restored the correct behavior for new SSO user accounts. **Impact** New users created via SSO on the European System were not automatically assigned to their Conditional Groups at account creation. Affected users did not receive the expected group memberships and required manual profile updates to trigger the assignment until the fix was applied. No impact was observed on the Americas System or the Asia/Pacific System. The fix was deployed on June 2, 2026, and confirmed fully effective on June 3, 2026. **Future Improvements** We will implement additional checks for the operation of the affected service component and improve our ability to detect and resolve similar issues more quickly in the future.

**Resolved**: Issues with News Block content availability on Americas system **Summary** Between April 3rd and April 8th, some customers on our Americas system experienced issues when using the News Block within Email Modern. During this time, newly published posts were not appearing in the search results, preventing them from being easily inserted into email drafts. **Root Cause** The issue was caused by a technical limitation in our automated search indexing process. This prevented the news search from updating with new news posts, meaning any content published after the start of the incident was not recognized by the News Block or other search-dependent features. **Resolution** Our engineering teams identified the bottleneck in the search indexing process and increased the available resources for this system. This allowed the backlog of posts to be processed and restored full functionality to the news post search. **Next Steps** To prevent this from happening again, we have permanently adjusted the resource allocation for this process and improved our monitoring to alert us earlier if search index delays occur.

Once the issue was identified, our team made the necessary adjustments to stabilize the system and restore normal operation. Following these adjustments, all pending tasks were processed successfully and service was fully restored by 20:24 \(UTC\). **Impact** Between 19:49 and 20:24 \(UTC\), customers on the US Server were temporarily unable to upload images or videos within the Studio. Additionally, the delivery of emails with media attachments was affected during this timeframe. Other platform functionalities remained available to users throughout this period. **Future Improvements** We will implement additional checks for the operation of the affected service component and optimize the subsequent alerting to ensure that similar issues are detected and resolved more quickly in the future. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we work to improve our services and prevent future incidents. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to our customer support team at [support@staffbase.com](mailto:support@staffbase.com).
