  3. investigating

    We continue to see recovery holding steady for the STS AssumeRoleWithSAML and AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity APIs in the US-WEST-2 Region. Error rates are now back to pre-event levels, and we continue actively monitoring to confirm full recovery. We will provide another update by 5:15 PM or earlier.

  4. investigating

    Between 2:12 PM and 3:18 PM PDT, we experienced increased API error rates affecting the STS AssumeRoleWithSAML and AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity APIs in the US-WEST-2 Region. The root cause was determined to be due to an issue with an STS subsystem responsible for communicating with external identity providers. Other AWS Services that rely on these identity federation protocols were also affected. At 3:18 PM, we observed signs of recovery and continued to monitor to ensure stability and full recovery. The issue is resolved and the service is operating normally at this time.
