Incident Report

We had a configuration error on our end with the Metadata Plus snapshots that was resulting in Plus subscribers being unable to retrieve snapshots for yesterday and today. We have fixed that setting and snapshots should again be available to Plus subscribers. The XML snapshots for September has finished uploading and is also available (https://api.crossref.org/snapshots/monthly/2025/09). That configuration error has also caused the JSON snapshots run to fail. We're working on fixing that and will rerun the process once we do. That will delay the JSON snapshots this month, but we expect them to be available by Monday, 6 October. -IF
