Report: "API Latency"
Last updateThe issue was caused by our API Redis instance running out of memory. As an immediate term fix we increased the size of the Redis instances in order to reduce latency. We have been monitoring the API the past few days and are seeing the service maintain the baseline performance we expect. We are also profiling our API platform to better understand where the spikes in memory are coming from and addressing those at core to ensure that this sort of incident does not happen again. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns in the meantime. We sincerely apologize for this incident and the impact it had on your team and your end-users.

Report: "Outage of Ribbon API/FCA Editing Capabilities (PUT/POST/DELETE Requests)"
Last updateThis incident has been resolved.
A fix has been implemented and we are monitoring the results.
Ribbon is currently experiencing a technical issue with our API infrastructure that is preventing data editing via the API and Find Care App (FCA). Ribbon APIs and FCA are only functioning in a read-only capacity; therefore, any data edits made via the API and FCA (PUT/POST/DELETE requests) will not be successful at this time. We currently do not have an estimated time for resolution; however, the API and FCA are currently live and functional for any read-only (GET) calls.
