## Updates from Apify
### 2026-04-08 10:01 UTC: investigating
We are investigating slow API response times due to underlying database issues.

### 2026-04-08 18:25 UTC: identified
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.

### 2026-04-08 20:35 UTC: investigating
Our systems are currently experiencing a major disruption. We sincerely apologize and are actively investigating the root cause. We will provide updates as more information becomes available.

### 2026-04-08 21:16 UTC: identified
Service has partially recovered, and we are currently experiencing degraded performance.
We are actively investigating the issue and working on a fix. We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.

### 2026-04-08 22:24 UTC: monitoring
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.

### 2026-04-09 09:15 UTC: resolved
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.
