Apify API Degraded Performance

What to do

• Check whether you use Apify Console (console.apify.com), API (api.apify.com), Actors. Check your stack

  Paste a package.json, lockfile, Terraform or a list of domains at down.guide/stack to see every provider you depend on.

• Confirm your retries, queues and scheduled jobs caught up after the 23h 15m it lasted.

  Anything that failed between 2026-04-08 10:01 UTC and 2026-04-09 09:15 UTC may need a replay.

   We are investigating slow API response times due to underlying database issues.

2. identifiedApr 8, 2026, 6:25 PM UTC

   We’ve identified the root cause and have resolved a part of the issue, but the system has not yet fully stabilized. The Actor Runs list endpoint (https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/:actorId/runs) remains the most impacted, along with related views in the Apify Console, where we are still actively working on a fix. Additional endpoints may also experience degraded performance. At this time, we cannot provide an estimate for full resolution.

   The Apify platform is fully recovered. The incident followed a database cluster sharding procedure that resulted in a performance impact on some operations. There was no data loss. The Actor run list API endpoint experienced performance issues between 10:00 and 20:30 UTC, followed by a partial outage of all services from 20:30 to 21:10. Now everything is back to normal, and we are monitoring the situation. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.

   All systems are operational, and we apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused. We are currently implementing new measures to make sure that this won't happen again.
