On February 27th at 6:04PM PST, we began experiencing some region-specific issues with our Content Delivery Network (CDN). During this period, some users may have experienced issues making calls, accessing the Admin or Checkout pages, installing and configuring apps or slower general performance. The issues with our CDN were addressed and by 10:08PM PST all functionality had returned to normal.

We've fixed the issues with calls, and all pages should be loading fast once again. However, if you're still seeing issues with any of these features, please let us know at feedback@slack.com.

We've isolated the problem with calls and the slow loading pages. We’re working to bring these features back online for everyone. More details to come as they become available.

Trouble editing posts

Issue Summary:

On February 27th 2019 between 4:45am and 6:36am PST, Slack experienced issues with Posts. In particular, an expired certificate for Slack's post servers prevented users from creating, modifying or reading Posts. We investigated the root cause and a valid certificate was generated and installed. We have made plans to prevent this from happening in the future.

6:34 PM PST

We're happy to report that the trouble with editing posts has now been resolved. We appreciate your patience and apologize for any inconvenience that was caused.

6:39 AM PST

Some customers are experiencing trouble typing in posts at this time. We apologise for any interruption and we will continue to investigate.
