## Timeline of updates

- **resolved** 2024-12-04 11:30 UTC: Resolved at: 15:22 UTC A bug in the validation logic traits meant that identities with traits that have a value of \`""\` would cause an exception, resulting in the identity not being stored correctly when updates were made. This issue was resolved at 15:22 UTC, any new requests to retrieve an identity's flags, or store their traits will correctly store those traits.
