Incident Start:28 April 2022 07:27
Incident End:28 April 2022 08:51
Duration:1 hour, 24 minutes
Affected Services and Features:
- Google Workspace Support - Admin Console
Regions/Zones:Global
Description:
Google Workspace Support was unavailable via the Admin Console for a duration of 1 hour, 24 minutes. From preliminary analysis, the root cause of the issue was due to elevated errors and latency from several backend component modules which failed to start in Google App Engine, due to an overload in the Google App Engine infrastructure.
Customer Impact:
- Google Workspace Support - customers were unable to view or search support cases in Google Admin Console. In addition, a small number of customers had degraded access to phone support, being redirected to a queue requiring additional manual authentication with the support agent.
Additional details:
The issue was fully resolved once the root cause change was rolled back from the Google App Engine infrastructure and request levels returned to normal, allowing the affected backend component modules to start.
Affected customers are unable to view or search Google Workspace cases in Customer Care Portal. New case creation is unaffected by the issue.
Workaround - Affected customers can go to admin.google.com and click on the support button to open support cases
