**Datto Workplace - AU5 - Some Files Are Unable to be Accessed Through Local Agents and Workplace Online** **Summary:** Between May 5, 2026 at 08:00 AM UTC and May 18, 2026 at 11:28 AM UTC, some Datto Workplace customers hosted in the AU5 environment experienced issues accessing files. During the affected period, users experienced errors when attempting to access specific files hosted within the AU5 cell through either the local agent or Workplace Online.
