Report: "Intermittent failures with Microsoft Edge push notifications"

Last update
resolved

Microsoft has resolved its DNS issue.

monitoring

Beginning 07:30 US Mountain time on 10/25/2023, we began seeing intermittent failures with Edge push notifications. There appears to be a global issue with Microsoft Windows Notification Service (WNS) related to DNS entries for a portion of their infrastructure. This is not a problem specific to Pulsara or a problem that is in Pulsara's control to fix. We recommend using Google Chrome if possible during this degraded performance of Microsoft Edge.

Report: "Degraded performance with Microsoft Edge Browser Notifications"

Last update
resolved

According to our monitoring, Microsoft resolved an issue on Friday, August 11th at approximately 0500 MST. We will continue to monitor the situation. At this time, all Microsoft Edge browser push notification functionality appears to be functioning normally.

monitoring

We are monitoring this issue to ensure that the issue is resolved.

identified

Microsoft recently released an update that disabled some previous settings for notification services in the Edge Browser. This issue has been identified and tied to this recent update from Microsoft Edge. To resolve this issue, please adjust your Edge browser settings to “enable” the Enable system notification setting. You can find this setting by navigating to edge://flags/#enable-system-notifications in your Edge browser. When you navigate this page, you will see the setting “Enable system notifications.” Please make sure that this setting is enabled. After you adjust this setting, we recommend sending yourself a test alert to ensure that alerts are working correctly. Please work with your IT staff if you have problems adjusting this setting.

investigating

Issue description: We have identified a Microsoft issue that started at approximately 1100 hrs CDT on 08/09/23. Browser Push notifications sent to customers using Microsoft Edge are not delivered approximately 50% of the time. Impact: Customers using Microsoft Edge EDs and other teams may not receive notifications when logged into Pulsara HQ using the Microsoft Edge browser for inbound patients, consult and transfer requests, etc. Note: New patients in Pulsara HQ will still flash red to notify you of new patients. What do I need to do about it? We strongly recommend that customers relying on Pulsara browser push notifications (audible alerts) for patient awareness switch to Google Chrome until this Microsoft issue is resolved.

Report: "Google Firebase Cloud Messaging Outage"

Last update
resolved

Pulsara experienced push notification issues for some Android users due to an error with Google's Firebase Messaging System. Here's the full details in chronological order. All times are US Mountain. --- Updated 4:50 PM 5/16/17 Pulsara engineers have updated the Google messaging key from the legacy server key, to a the FCM key per Google’s recommendation, verified the change in test environments, and finally rolled this change out to Production. This issue is fully resolved to the best of our knowledge. With the additional changes to our update our messaging token, we expect that operations are fully restored, and push notifications to all Android users will be sent and delivered as normal going forward. We will keep monitoring server logs this evening to keep an eye on things. --- Updated 3:22 PM 5/16/17 Google has posted an update that the outage is affecting customers using legacy GCM keys. Pulsara Engineering is initiating steps to upgrade our GCM keys to FCM keys, per Google’s recommendation. --- Updated 3:02 PM 5/16/17 Google has officially acknowledged the service disruption, and has posted updated (and backdated) status at the Firebase status console at https://status.firebase.google.com Apologies for the service disruption and for not updating the Firebase status earlier. The rate of errors has been small enough that we didn't believe was having an impact on FCM users. Clearly some developers are being affected disproportionately. We updated the Firebase status at this page: https://status.firebase.google.com/incident/Cloud%20Messaging/17005 --- Updated 2:51 PM 5/16/17 Pulsara Engineering is continuing to monitor the issue. --- Updated 1:49 PM 5/16/17 Pulsara has released hotfix Server 44.2 to production, which will resolve the errors being seen in our mobile applications, by continuing past any sporadic errors from Google FCM.

ETA for hotfix deployed to production is about 2 PM. --- Updated 12:35 AM 5/16/17 Google has a Google FCM service outage on public message boards. However, they have not yet updated the Firebase status console at https://status.firebase.google.com --- Updated 12:10 AM 5/16/17 We have confirmed on developer message boards that we are not the only company to be experiencing this issue with Google messaging services. --- Updated 11:43 AM 5/16/17 Next Steps: Pulsara Engineering is working on a code change that will stop fatal errors from happening when our connection to Google FCM fails. After confirming the fix, we will roll out the changes to test stacks (environments), and then to Production. --- Updated 10:54 AM 5/16/17 Errors from Google FCM have started occurring again. Our engineering team is continuing to monitor the issue. --- Updated 10:27 AM 5/16/17 Issues at Google FCM appear to be resolved. We have not observed an error in 20+ minutes. --- Updated 9:51 AM 5/16/17 We are currently experiencing intermittent errors connecting to Google Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). Pulsara Engineering is investigating the root cause. On an intermittent basis, affected users will not receive push notifications and other mobile application users will see errors when performing operations that send push notifications as a side effect. More info will be posted here when available.
