The issue affected users on certain ISPs, particularly Virgin Media.

Impact: Login access only. No customer data was affected or moved.

Cause: Likely network or routing changes on the affected ISPs impacting access to the Actionstep login page. Affected customers should contact their ISP to check for recent changes.

Data location clarification: No customer data is stored in AP Southeast 2. That region only serves the login page. Once you select your system tile, you&#x27;re redirected to the data centre where your system actually resides (UK region for UK customers). Your data has not moved and remains stored in your designated region.

What happened:
The Gmail Add-on was running on the deprecated Google Apps Script Rhino runtime. Google ended support for the Rhino runtime, which caused the add-on to fail before any app logic could execute.

What we did:
Our team migrated the Apps Script project to the V8 runtime, created a new deployment version, and redeployed the Gmail Add-on. The add-on is now fully operational.

What we&#x27;re doing to prevent this:
We have reviewed our runtime dependencies to ensure we are not relying on deprecated infrastructure going forward.

We apologise for any disruption this caused and thank you for yo</description></item><item><title>Performance degradation and 500 errors [resolved]</title><link>https://stspg.io/zzkj7fx4vjpm</link><guid isPermaLink="false">actionstep:2026-05-22T13:25:41.017+12:00</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2026 01:25:41 +0000</pubDate><description>The root cause of this issue has now been resolved.

**Incident Overview**    
On December 4, 2025, some customers in the United Kingdom – primarily those using Sky Broadband – experienced difficulty accessing the Actionstep login page. This login page \(also known as the Launchpad\) is hosted in the ap-southeast-2 region; however, no customer data for UK systems is stored or processed in this region. Once a user selects their system, they are directed to the appropriate UK/region-specific server where their data resides.

Our investigation confirmed that this incident was caused entirely by a Sky ISP routing/connectivity issue preventing requests from reaching a wide variety of services hosted in ap-southeast-2. Actionstep also contacted AWS, who con</description></item><item><title>Partial Outage - (US-West-2) - Bad Gateway Error Encountered in Actionstep Navigation – November 11, 2025 [resolved]</title><link>https://stspg.io/2s7m0svkw25k</link><guid isPermaLink="false">actionstep:2025-11-12T05:20:18.064+13:00</guid><pubDate>Tue, 11 Nov 2025 16:20:18 +0000</pubDate><description>We are communicating to provide further information on the outage that affected the Actionstep system on 11/11/2025 and confirm that the issue is now resolved.
