### 2026-10-27 15:51 UTC: investigating
We're aware of an issue where uploads are failing in Optimizely Content Marketing Platform (CMP) and Digital Asset Management (DAM). Users trying to upload assets may see an "Upload Error" message, and the upload won't finish.
Our Engineering team is investigating right now and is working to find the cause and restore normal upload behavior as quickly as possible.
We'll post more details on the investigation soon. We apologize for the disruption and thank you for your patience.

### 2026-10-27 17:01 UTC: identified
We've identified the cause of the upload failures in Optimizely Content Marketing Platform (CMP) and Digital Asset Management (DAM).
The issue is with a third-party service provider that supports file uploads. Their service is currently rejecting upload requests from our platform, which is why users see an "Upload Error" message. Our Engineering team has already contacted the provider and is working with them to restore uploads as quickly as possible.
We don't have an estimated time for resolution yet. We'll share another update as soon as we have more information
We apologize for the disruption and thank you for your patience.
