November 12, 2025 **MSP Portal: Instance creation hanging** ‌ **Issue Summary:** On October 17, 2025, some MSP partners experienced failures when attempting to create new customer instances through the MSP Portal. ‌ **Root Cause:** An internal data alignment issue caused our provisioning service to reject valid instance creation requests. Additionally, overly strict data validation rules incorrectly flagged some legitimate requests as invalid. ‌ **Resolution:** Our engineering team corrected the data alignment issue and implemented improved error handling to ensure the provisioning service processes instance creation requests successfully. ‌ **Mitigation:** We've adjusted the data validation rules to prevent false rejections while maintaining appropriate security standards. We've also added enhanced monitoring to detect similar issues before they impact customers. We also added better phone number validation that properly supports international numbers. **‌** **Conclusion:** This issue has been fully resolved, and the additional safeguards are now in place to prevent recurrence.
