## Timeline of updates

- **resolved** 2021-12-22 13:00 UTC: Due to an outage in an upstream provider, we had minor disruptions to a few services. A small percent of webhooks were delayed for up to 30 minutes between 12:30 and 13:00 UTC. All webhooks have now been delivered. Experimentation events for numeric metrics are experiencing delays as the system catches up to the backlog of events. No data loss is expected.

_From the vendor’s published history: only the final update text is available for incidents before Rewindex began polling this page._
