Timeline of updates
- investigating
Users close to the us-east-1 (Northern Virginia) region of AWS may be unable to join video calls. We are investigating.
- monitoring
We have attempted to work around this AWS issue for users that would normally be routed to our us-east-1 resources by temporarily removing all of our us-east-1 DNS records from our AWS API Gateway configurations whilst we wait for AWS to recover the region. We'll continue to monitor the situation.
- resolved
AWS has resolved the regional issues in us-east-1. We have re-activated the us-east-1 region for new audio and video calls.
