## Updates from WorkOS

### resolved, 2026-10-01 15:30 UTC

On October 1, 2026, from 11:34 to 11:40 AM EDT, our CDN provider had a network problem at its Columbus, Ohio location. Some requests to the WorkOS API (api.workos.com) and to AuthKit-hosted pages failed with HTTP 500 or 403 errors. Only requests routed through that location were affected. At the peak, about 8% of all API requests failed, including Audit Logs event ingestion, authentication and Vault decrypt calls. WorkOS systems stayed healthy the whole time and the provider fixed the problem by 11:40 AM EDT. Audit Logs event ingestion (POST /audit_logs/events) was the most affected endpoint: up to 21% of event submissions failed at the peak. Events from failed requests were not recorded. If your application did not retry them, resend any audit log events submitted between 11:34 and 11:40 AM EDT.
