## Updates from Flagsmith
### 2022-05-19 18:14 UTC: investigating
We're seeing elevated error rates to our API on account of a large influx of spurious traffic. We are deploying a fix to this which should help alleviate this.

### 2022-05-19 18:29 UTC: monitoring
Our fix has deployed to production and all key infrastructure metrics are returning to normal range. 
We will continue to monitor.

### 2022-05-20 07:28 UTC: resolved
API latency has returned to normal range following monitoring.
