Elevated errors across SSO and AuthKit sign-inResolved Oct 9, 2026 · -176 minResolved

From 20:20 to 20:21 UTC on October 9, 2026 some SSO and AuthKit sign-in requests failed with HTTP 500 errors. The failures hit SSO token exchange and AuthKit authenticate requests. A database maintenance operation conflicted with live sign-in traffic. The operation self-corrected and service recovered shortly thereafter with no data loss. End users who saw an error could sign in again by retrying. We are updating the maintenance job to avoid live traffic disruption.

Elevated API and AuthKit errors for some requests (Columbus, OH region)Resolved Oct 9, 2026 · -11780 minResolved

On October 1, 2026, from 11:34 to 11:40 AM EDT, our CDN provider had a network problem at its Columbus, Ohio location. Some requests to the WorkOS API (api.workos.com) and to AuthKit-hosted pages failed with HTTP 500 or 403 errors. Only requests routed through that location were affected. At the peak, about 8% of all API requests failed, including Audit Logs event ingestion, authentication and Vault decrypt calls. WorkOS systems stayed healthy the whole time and the provider fixed the problem by 11:40 AM EDT. Audit Logs event ingestion (POST /audit_logs/events) was the most affected endpoint: up to 21% of event submissions failed at the peak. Events from failed requests were not recorded. If your application did not retry them, resend any audit log events submitted between 11:34 and 11:40 AM EDT.

WorkOS Status FAQ

Is WorkOS down right now?

The verdict at the top of this page comes from the latest poll of the official WorkOS status feed and refreshes automatically, so you are not looking at a stale cached answer. PulsAPI re-checks a vendor every 60 seconds whenever it is not fully operational, or has changed status in the last 30 minutes, so an incident is always on the fastest cadence. Vendors that are stable and rarely watched are re-checked every 5 to 20 minutes instead.

What should I do if WorkOS is not working?

Check the component list on this page first to see if your failure matches a known outage. If it does, you can report the issue for other engineers, follow the incident timeline for vendor updates, and run any fallback your app supports until WorkOS recovers.

How do I check WorkOS uptime history?

PulsAPI tracks WorkOS uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is 99.97%. The 90-day uptime strip on this page is public: no account needed. A free account adds alerts whenever WorkOS changes state, plus 15 days of incident detail; Pro extends that to 90 days and Business to 13 months.

How fast does PulsAPI detect WorkOS outages?

PulsAPI reads the official WorkOS status page. PulsAPI re-checks a vendor every 60 seconds whenever it is not fully operational, or has changed status in the last 30 minutes, so an incident is always on the fastest cadence. Vendors that are stable and rarely watched are re-checked every 5 to 20 minutes instead. Alerts reach Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, or email within seconds of detection.

Does PulsAPI track individual WorkOS components?

Yes. PulsAPI monitors 7 individual WorkOS components, so you can see which service or region is affected instead of a generic "service degraded" banner.

Can I get alerts when WorkOS goes down?

Yes. Create a free account and subscribe to WorkOS: the free plan covers three services with unlimited email alerts and no monthly notification cap. Paid plans lift the monitor limit entirely (Pro and above do not meter how many vendors you watch) and route the same alerts into Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty and webhooks.

How do I report an issue with WorkOS to the community?

Click "Report an issue" at the top of this page, pick the issue type and severity, and optionally add your region and a short note. Reports are anonymous and help other engineers spot WorkOS problems early. Official status pages often lag real incidents by 10 to 20 minutes.

Is there a free way to monitor WorkOS?

Yes. The free plan covers 3 monitored services with unlimited email alerts, permanently, so WorkOS plus two more costs nothing. Every new account also opens with a 30-day Business trial (unlimited monitors, Slack alerts, SLA reporting) with no credit card.

Track WorkOS with the rest of your stack

2463+ vendors in one dashboard, and an email the moment any of them changes state. Three free, and no monitor limit at all from $29/mo, unlike the alternatives, which keep charging by the monitor.
