## Updates from Fly.io

### resolved, 2026-10-15 11:33 UTC

Between 06:40 and 09:50 UTC some app creation and secrets requests failed or timed out. Running apps and Machines were not affected.

### monitoring, 2026-10-15 09:57 UTC

We’ve applied a fix for the elevated errors affecting app creation and secrets management. Error rates and response times have returned to normal. We’re continuing to monitor to confirm the issue is fully resolved.

### investigating, 2026-10-15 09:30 UTC

We’re seeing elevated error rates and slow responses for some operations that create or change data. Creating new apps, setting or removing secrets, and some app deletions are affected. You may see 500 or 503 errors from `flyctl`, the Machines API, or the dashboard. Apps and Machines that are already running are not affected. Starting, stopping and reading existing Machines are working normally. We’re investigating and will post another update within 30 minutes.
