The impact to support tickets with missing SLA component and delayed notifications have also confirmed recovery. Note: For Bitbucket customers, if there was any scheduled pipelines that did not run during the incident window, you may wait for the next scheduled execution or trigger them manually.

  7. postmortem Oct 09, 2026, 06:24 PM UTC

    ### Summary On October 1, 2026, between 01:00 and 07:25 UTC, degraded job processing and scheduling impacted Atlassian products including Bitbucket Cloud, Confluence, Forge apps, Jira, and Jira Service Management in all commercial cloud regions. This caused delayed or missed background tasks, such as email-to-ticket processing and scheduled pipelines; interactive product use was not affected. The event was triggered when an unexpected volume of scheduled tasks became due simultaneously, overwhelming our shared job scheduling platform. Automated monitoring detected the incident within three minutes. Recovery began around 03:45 UTC as engineering scaled capacity and the platform worked through the backlog, with full resolution reached in 6 hours and 25 minutes. ### IMPACT Most scheduled tasks stopped running at 01:00 UTC and resumed from about 03:45 UTC. Most delayed work had caught up by about 06:00 UTC, and the remaining delays had cleared by 07:25 UTC. Across affected products: - Recurring scheduled tasks skipped or delayed runs due during the incident; skipped runs were not automatically re-run, and tasks resumed at their next scheduled time. - Most one-time scheduled tasks ran late; a small number may not have run. - Automation rules, including scheduled rules, ran normally, except as noted below. Bitbucket Cloud Scheduled pipelines due between 01:00 and about 03:50 UTC did not run. If a scheduled pipeline did not run during the incident, you can wait for the next scheduled execution or trigger it manually. Other pipeline runs were not affected. Confluence Some calendar event reminders due between 01:00 and about 03:45 UTC were not sent. Forge apps Scheduled triggers stopped at 01:00 UTC and resumed from about 04:00 UTC; missed invocations were not replayed. Goals Start of the month email reminders to update goals could be delayed. Jira and Jira Service Management Incoming emails stayed in their mailboxes and were processed automatically after recovery. Scheduled notifications, such as filter subscriptions, were delayed. In some service projects, automation rules and notifications triggered by SLAs or time in status ran late. SLA timer data remained intact. Atlassian Support Until 07:25 UTC, issues with our support tools may have slowed some of our responses. Based on our investigation to date, we have not identified any loss of work items, pages, repositories, or incoming emails. ### ROOT CAUSE Our shared job scheduling platform operates at high scale under normal conditions. One of the platform consumers scheduled an abnormally high volume of tasks to be executed at the same time on October 1st at 01:00 UTC. This order-of-magnitude surge exceeded our architectural and scaling limits, creating a processing backlog across dependent services. Engineering manually increased capacity to handle the abnormal load, enabling the service to process the backlog and return to normal operations. ### REMEDIAL ACTIONS PLAN & NEXT STEPS We know that delayed and missed work affects your productivity. We are prioritizing these actions to help reduce the likelihood and impact of similar incidents: - **Enhance workload isolation:** Implement fair scheduling guardrails so volume surges from a single source do not starve or delay tasks across other products. - **Strengthen surge controls:** Add operational capabilities to quickly throttle or pause scheduled workloads from specific sources during unexpected traffic spikes. - **Improve system scaling and recovery:** Enhance platform capacity and optimize scaling processes to handle extreme demand spikes and recover more rapidly. We apologize to customers whose services were impacted during this incident. Thanks, Atlassian

  3. resolved Sep 11, 2026, 08:37 AM UTC

    On 11 September 2026, Between 07:02 UTC and 07:56 UTC, some Jira Software and Jira Service Management users may have experienced degraded performance and errors when accessing Work Items and Boards. The issue has now been resolved, and all services are operating normally.

  4. postmortem Sep 21, 2026, 10:36 PM UTC

    ### Summary On September 11, 2026, between 07:02 and 07:56 UTC, Atlassian customers primarily from the EU region and some from APAC region using Jira and Jira Service Management products were unable to view work items or access boards consistently. The event was triggered by a backward-incompatible internal configuration rollout in the underlying graph data platform. The incident was detected within 3 minutes by our automated monitoring system and mitigated by rolling forward the stable deployment to all regions. The total time to resolution was about 54 minutes. ### IMPACT The overall impact occurred between September 11, 2026, 07:02 UTC and September 11, 2026, 07:56 UTC on two products. During this period, some customers in the EU region using Jira and Jira Service Management experienced intermittent failures or degraded performance. We noted that a configuration failure prevented critical dependency services from scaling, which resulted in an outage for affected users. Jira and Jira Service Management users experienced timeout errors and failed or delayed page loads when attempting to access the work item view, issue navigator, and board view. ### ROOT CAUSE The incident was caused by the deployment of a change to the graph store service, which serves links to third-party entities such as pull requests. The change caused startup checks to fail, preventing new nodes from joining the cluster. During peak traffic, the service could not scale sufficiently, causing requests from Jira and Jira Service Management to the graph store service to fail. ### REMEDIAL ACTIONS PLAN & NEXT STEPS We know that outages impact your productivity. We are prioritizing the following improvement actions to avoid repeating this type of incident: - Implement Code-Based Configuration: We are moving configuration definition files to be part of the core codebase to ensure they are versioned and deployed synchronously with the application logic. - Graceful Degradation in Jira: We are implementing changes to the affected Jira views to segregate core queries from noncritical dependency queries, allowing the page to remain functional even if a downstream service fails. - Optimize Deployment Pipeline: Deployment pipelines are being optimized to enable accelerated, parallel updates during operational response scenarios. We apologize to customers whose services were impacted during this incident; we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability. Thanks, Atlassian Customer Support

    On September 3, 2026, JIRA experienced a disruption, and services were unavailable to affected users. The issue has now been resolved, and the service is operating normally for all affected customers.

  4. postmortem Sep 10, 2026, 06:15 PM UTC

    ### Summary On September 3, 2026, between 14:52 and 17:02 UTC, Atlassian customers using Jira and Jira Service Management in the US-East region experienced intermittent errors and degraded access to core Jira experiences, including Rovo, viewing issues, boards, navigation, search-backed experiences, workflow-related actions. The event was triggered by a progressive rollout of a caching change in Atlassian's authorization service. The change increased cache traffic and caused saturation in the cache layer used for authorization checks, which then resulted in timeouts and service errors for some customers in the region. The incident was detected by our monitoring within approximately 12 minutes. We mitigated by deploying the affected cache service and disabling the feature flags associated with the new cache path. The total time to resolution was 2 hours and 10 minutes. ### IMPACT The overall impact occurred on September 3, 2026 between 14:52 and 17:02 UTC. During this period, some customers in the US-East region using Jira and Jira Service Management experienced intermittent failures or degraded performance when accessing experiences that depend on authorization checks. These included issue view, Rovo, board view, navigation, search-backed experiences, API, and workflow-related actions. ### ROOT CAUSE The issue was caused by a progressive rollout of a new cache path in Atlassian’s authorization service. The change was intended to improve scalability for customers with large authorization datasets by changing how some authorization information was cached. During the rollout, both the existing and new cache paths were active for consistency checks, which increased the number of cache entries and cache operations. In the US-East region, where traffic volume was highest, this additional load saturated parts of the shared cache layer. As cache requests timed out, the authorization service made more fallback requests to upstream systems, further increasing load and causing circuit breakers and timeouts. Dependent Jira experiences that require authorization checks then returned intermittent errors or failed to load for affected users. The initial rollout monitoring did not surface the risk early enough because lower-traffic regions did not show the same level of degradation and some alerts were not scoped or routed in a way that highlighted the regional cache saturation before customer impact grew. ### REMEDIAL ACTIONS PLAN & NEXT STEPS We know that outages impact customer productivity, and we apologize to customers who were affected during this incident. We are prioritizing the following improvement actions to help reduce the likelihood and impact of similar incidents: - **Enhance deployment safeguards:** Improve rollout practices for high-risk cache and authorization-service changes by using smaller, region-aware rollout increments and validating behavior in higher-traffic regions before broader enablement. - **Implement graceful degradation:** Evaluate graceful-degradation options for authorization checks so dependent experiences can continue working, if a cache dependency is unavailable. - **Strengthen regional telemetry and capacity monitoring:** Strengthen cache capacity and health monitoring, including regional detectors for cache CPU, memory pressure, hit rate, eviction rate, timeout rate, and connection behavior. - **Expand production-scale load testing:** Review cache design and capacity planning for authorization data so changes that increase key cardinality or cache operations are load-tested against representative production-scale traffic before rollout. - **Harden client resilience:** Review cache client timeout and reconnect behavior to reduce the risk of connection storms when cache nodes become slow or saturated. We will continue to validate these actions through the incident review process and track them to completion with the responsible engineering teams. Thanks, Atlassian Customer Support

A public postmortem for this incident will be made available on this page when our full investigation of the incident has been completed.

  6. postmortem Sep 07, 2026, 02:53 AM UTC

    **SUMMARY** On August 27, 2026, between 03:51 and 04:35 UTC, Atlassian customers in the Western Europe and Southeast APAC regions were unable to reach Atlassian Cloud products, including Atlassian Analytics, Compass, Confluence, Focus, Guard, Jira, JPD, JSM, Opsgenie, Rovo Search, and Talent. The event was triggered by a defective code change to the routing layer of one of our proxy fleets. This led to HTTP 404 errors being served to all customer traffic through these proxy fleets in Western Europe and Southeast APAC regions. The incident was detected within 1 minute by our automated monitoring systems, and mitigated by rolling back to the previous configuration release, which put the proxy fleet into a known good state. After the proxy fleet recovered, some Jira and Confluence customers (regardless of location) received HTTP 503 errors between 04:33 and 04:53 UTC as server fleets adjusted to the influx of traffic. **IMPACT** The overall impact was split into two discrete periods: - First, on 27 August 2026, between 03:51 and 04:35 UTC on Atlassian Analytics, Compass, Confluence, Focus, Guard, Jira, JPD, JSM, Opsgenie, Rovo Search, and Talent. The incident caused service disruption to customer traffic originating from Western Europe and Southeast APAC regions, with HTTP 404 errors returned. There was no impact to customer API traffic, regardless of origin location. - Second, on 27 August 2026, between 04:33 and 04:53 UTC, some Jira and Confluence customers regardless of location received HTTP 503 errors after the HTTP 404 errors were solved: ~32% of requests in ap-southeast-2, ~4% of requests in eu-west-1, ~2.5% of requests in us-west-2 and ap-southeast-1, and <1% of requests in all remaining global regions. **ROOT CAUSE** The event was triggered by a code change to one of our proxy fleets. However, there was a defect in the code deployed which was not detected by manual and automated testing. This led to a misconfiguration of a tenant lookup functionality in the proxy tier, which led to traffic not having a valid network path, resulting in HTTP 404 errors being served to all customer traffic through these proxy fleets in Western Europe and Southeast APAC regions. After the proxy tier impact recovered, a second period of impact was caused to some Jira and Confluence customers. Due to the reduction of traffic served to Jira and Confluence by the proxy fleet, the Jira and Confluence service tiers had automatically scaled in the number of servers serving customer traffic. Once the proxy fleet functionality was restored, the surge of traffic overwhelmed the Jira service tier, which returned an elevated rate of HTTP 503s until it automatically scaled out again. **REMEDIAL ACTIONS PLAN & NEXT STEPS** We know that outages impact your productivity. While we have a number of testing and preventative processes in place, this specific issue wasn’t identified because the change was related to a very specific kind of edge case that was not picked up by our automated continuous deployment suites and manual test scripts. We are prioritizing the following improvement actions to help avoid repeating this type of incident: - **Adding further deployment safeguards:** The deployment pipeline for the configuration of the impacted proxy tier was using a legacy system and did not have the appropriate slow regional rollout features configured correctly. We have already added the correct safeguards, and we are moving this to our company standard deployment pipeline that includes all of our safety controls enabled by default. We are also auditing all networking services to validate that they are all on the new standard pipeline deployment service. - **Enhancing service fleet scaling policies:** The auto scaling configuration for our Jira and Confluence service fleets was configured to scale in too aggressively. We are thoroughly reviewing and updating all of the complex Jira and Confluence auto scaling policies to ensure that this doesn’t occur again. We apologize to customers whose services were impacted during this incident; we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability. Thanks, Atlassian Customer Support

  6. postmortem Jul 27, 2026, 06:57 AM UTC

    ## Summary On Jul 6, 2026, between 06:51 and 20:17 UTC, Atlassian customers using cloud products in European (EU) regions experienced service disruptions affecting automation rule execution, user search, user picker, and related workflows. The incident began when a core identity service experienced database saturation in EU regions, increasing latency and error rates. While responders worked to restore capacity, an emergency mitigation was applied which blocked automation rules from accessing the identity endpoint. In parallel, the elevated identity latency contributed to a cascading failure in a downstream user search service, degrading user search and user picker experiences across multiple products. Service was progressively restored after additional database read capacity was added, the emergency block was removed, and the user search service was manually scaled up. ## Impact The incident affected customers across multiple Atlassian products in EU regions on Jul 6, 2026 between 06:51 and 20:17 UTC. - **Core Identity service degradation:** elevated intermittent access denied rates were observed across products in EU regions. - **Automation rule execution failures:** automation rules using the default user (Automation for Jira) in Jira, Jira Service Management, and Jira Product Discovery in EU regions failed with a permissions error. - **User search and user picker failures:** user search success rates dropped significantly in EU regions, with user picker capability largely unavailable across products. ## Root Cause The incident originated from a recent configuration change that reduced the cache lifetime for a core identity service. As EU workday traffic ramped up on July 6, 2026, a larger share of requests began reaching the backing database directly rather than being served from cache. The EU databases did not have sufficient regional capacity to absorb the increased load, and database CPU reached saturation, causing elevated intermittent access denied rates. As part of the mitigation, an emergency block was applied to reduce load on the saturated identity service database and prioritize restoring the core identity service. This inadvertently prevented automation rules from passing their pre-execution permission checks, causing them to fail. The extended duration was primarily due to a secondary wave of automation rule failures caused by the processing limit throttling. In parallel, the sustained degradation caused increased latency and intermittent failures across products that depend on these checks, and contributed to a cascading failure in a downstream user search service. As a result, user search and user picker experiences became largely unavailable in EU regions until the permissions service recovered and the user search service was scaled up to restore capacity. ## Remedial Actions Plan & Next Steps We know outages impact customers' productivity. Atlassian is prioritizing the following actions to help prevent similar incidents in future: - **Improve safeguards for high-impact emergency mitigations:** Harden operational tooling so mitigation steps that could disable customer-facing workflows require additional review. - **Strengthen identity infrastructure capacity and change safety:** Review regional database sizing and capacity headroom to reduce the risk of saturation during peak traffic periods, and refine the assessment process for configuration changes so downstream load impact is evaluated before production rollout. - **Strengthen resilience against cascading failures from upstream degradation:** Audit backpressure handling, circuit breaker configuration, and autoscaling behavior in services, so that upstream degradation does not cause broader product impact across user search, user picker, and related experiences. - **Harden replay mechanisms for Automation rule failures:** Increase resilience of automation rules to reduce impact associated with incidents occurring in dependencies.. We recognize how critical reliable product workflows are for our customers, and we apologize to customers who were impacted by this incident. Thanks, Atlassian Customer Support

  5. postmortem Jun 12, 2026, 06:49 AM UTC

    **SUMMARY** On June 01, 2026, between 06:54 and 08:28 UTC, Atlassian customers using Jira, Jira Service Management, and Jira Work Management were unable to view issues, boards, and backlogs, and experienced errors when performing transitions, adding comments, and navigating the product. The event was triggered by caching infrastructure autoscaling failure. The issue only impacted customers hosted in Europe. The incident was detected within 8 minutes by our automated monitoring system and mitigated by progressively scaling the caching clusters manually. The total time to resolution was 1 hour and 34 minutes due to the progressive recovery. **IMPACT** The incident caused service disruption for customers hosted in the Europe region who were unable to access core experiences across Jira Software, Jira Service Management, and Jira Work Management. **ROOT CAUSE** The root cause of the incident was a capacity constraint on our caching infrastructure in one availability zone of our EU Central cloud region. As morning traffic increased, our caching clusters attempted to scale out automatically. However, the cloud infrastructure was unable to provision additional nodes in that availability zone due to insufficient underlying capacity. Our caching infrastructure is designed to scale across multiple availability zones to ensure balanced and resilient capacity. On this occasion, a capacity constraint in one availability zone prevented the scaling operation from completing as expected. With the caching layer unable to grow to meet demand, the clusters began to experience network and/or CPU saturation and could not handle all incoming requests within the expected timeout window. Since a single user request to Jira typically involves multiple cache calls, timeouts compound rapidly. As more threads became blocked waiting on timed-out or slow cache operations, the application nodes reached its busy thread limit and began shedding load. While additional application nodes were added, these also experienced the same thread limit saturation due to the saturation of the cache layer resulting in widespread 503 service unavailable errors for customers. **REMEDIAL ACTIONS PLAN & NEXT STEPS** We know that outages impact your productivity. In addition to existing safeguards and monitoring, Atlassian is prioritizing the following actions to help prevent similar incidents in future: - **Increased minimum caching cluster size**: We have increased the minimum number of nodes in all affected caching clusters in the EU Central region. This ensures sufficient capacity headroom to handle peak traffic without relying on autoscaling, reducing the risk of a similar failure occurring. - **Change autoscaling behaviour**: We are working on improvements to our autoscaling behaviour to fall back to other availability zones when capacity is unavailable in a single zone. We apologize to customers whose services were impacted during this incident; we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability. Thanks, Atlassian Customer Support

    ### Summary On May 14, 2026, between 04:30 and 05:26 UTC, Atlassian customers experienced widespread service disruption across multiple Atlassian Cloud products. The issue was caused by a race condition in our internal deployment orchestration platform during a routine rollback operation of a core identity service in the us-east region. This race condition resulted in insufficient capacity for the identity service in the affected region which started returning errors to dependent products. The incident was detected within a minute by automated monitoring systems and mitigated in 56 minutes. ### **IMPACT** During the incident, customers attempting to access Atlassian Cloud products in the us-east region experienced authentication and permission failures and were unable to access services. Customers also experienced errors when accessing the support portal until Atlassian fell back to an alternate support method. This was caused by a core identity service in the us-east region becoming unavailable. Affected products included Atlassian Administration, Atlassian Analytics, Bitbucket, Compass, Confluence, Jira, Jira Product Discovery, Jira Service Management and Trello. Some users outside us-east may have been affected in certain scenarios. ### **ROOT CAUSE** The incident was caused by a race condition in our internal deployment orchestration platform during a routine rollback operation of a core identity service in the us-east region. This race condition resulted in insufficient capacity for the identity service in the affected region which started returning errors to dependent products. ### **REMEDIAL ACTIONS PLAN & NEXT STEPS** We know that outages impact your productivity. Atlassian is prioritizing the following actions to help prevent similar incidents in future: * **Refine deployment orchestration safeguards** * Harden our deployment platform to prevent similar race conditions or resulting capacity loss during a rollback operation. * Streamline mitigation steps when a service becomes unavailable in a region. * **Reduce cross-region impact** * Improve regional isolation and fallback handling so an issue affecting a single region is less likely to impact customers or product functionality in other regions. We recognise how critical reliable access to Atlassian products is for our customers' productivity, and we apologize to customers who were impacted by this incident. Thanks, Atlassian
