Major Discord API Outage Prevents Logins and Voice Chats

Major Discord API Outage Prevents Logins and Voice Chats

Discord is suffering a ‘massive outage’ preventing users from logging in to the service or using voice chats.

The outage started at 2:49 PM EST and was originally caused by a widespread API outage.

However, after resolving the issue, Discord reported that they discovered a problem with one of their database clusters, causing further issues.

“We have identified the underlying issue with the API outage but are dealing with a secondary issue on one of our database clusters. We have our entire on-call response team online and responding to the issue,” Discord explained on their status page.

Users who attempt to log into Discord are met with a spinning logo, which ultimately shows a message about the outage.

Update – The database is healthy again and our internal error rate has fallen to nominal levels. We are beginning to raise the login rate limit to allow users to reconnect.

Update – We are continuing to work through some issues with one of our database clusters. We are still rate limiting login traffic. Next update in 15 minutes.

Update – We have instituted a rate limit on logins to manage the traffic load. Users who are logged in are successfully using Discord at this point, and we will be slowly raising the limits here to allow more users in as we can. We expect this to be resolved in the next 15 minutes.

Identified – We have identified the underlying issue with the API outage but are dealing with a secondary issue on one of our database clusters. We have our entire on-call response team online and responding to the issue.

Investigating – We are currently investigating a widespread API outage.

If you wait long enough, you should be able to gain access to Discord as they continue to increase the number of people logging into the system.

This is a developing story and will be updated as new information becomes available.
