- **postmortem** 2026-09-15 21:26 UTC _(edited after publishing)_: We recently addressed issues affecting Admin Reports on AI usage reporting. We would like to take the opportunity to further explain these issues and the steps we have taken to keep them from happening in the future. Between 3:30 PM PDT and 7:59 PM PDT on September 3, 2026, ~~—~~ some users may have experienced difficulties while working in Box. During this time, AI Unit usage reports may have shown missing, empty, or otherwise incomplete AI-usage data and related insights. The issue occurred because a third‑party data ingestion service experienced elevated error rates that interrupted ingestion into our reporting pipeline. We were able to resolve the issue after the provider deployed a mitigation, and our teams re-ran previously failing ingestion jobs and rebuilt reporting tables to backfill missing data, restoring report availability. In addition, we will pursue follow-up with the provider and take steps to reduce the likelihood of recurrence. Analysis Upon learning of the incident, coordination with our third‑party provider was required to restore capacity. Corrective Actions Box has initiated the following corrective actions: Obtaining the provider's formal root‑cause analysis. Enhancing re-try mechanisms to recover from failures. Enhancing alerting mechanisms for failed ingestion jobs error rates and observable signs of data‑quality degradation. We are continuously working to improve Box and want to make sure we are delivering the best product and user experience we can. We hope we have provided some clarity here and we would be happy to answer any questions you may still have regarding this matter. Sincerely, The Box Team
