Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

Gorgias experienced a 3.9-hour outage where Outlook email integrations became disconnected, preventing users from accessing their email workflows through the platform. The engineering team identified and resolved the root cause, automatically restoring 97% of affected integrations and importing missed messages, while the remaining 3% required manual reconnection due to expired credentials. Users were provided with forwarding email integration as an alternative solution during the disruption.

We are continuing to work on a fix for this issue.

RESOLVED 9 days ago - at 03/16/2026 10:46AM

Our team has successfully reactivated the vast majority of affected integrations; approximately 97% have been restored automatically. Import of any missed inbound messages during the disruption is currently in progress and may take some time to complete.

A small minority of integrations (about 3%) could not be automatically reactivated because their underlying credentials had expired. If your Outlook integration still appears deactivated, you will need to manually reconnect it from your helpdesk settings. You should have received an email notification about the deactivation.

As an alternative, you can also set up a forwarding email integration, which is not affected by this issue as mentioned perviously.

We apologize for the disruption and appreciate your patience as we finalize the data import for the restored integrations.

While most of the Outlook integration are re-activated and their missed messages have been imported correctly, we identified some Outlook integrations which have not been.

While we are working to reconnect them, and then import missing emails, we encourage you to setup forwarding email integration (documentation available here: https://docs.gorgias.com/en-US/send-and-receive-email-from-gorgias-using-automatic-forwarding-1656317).
In addition to be more reliable, forwarding integrations are also less intrusive and more scalable than Outlook and Google email integrations.

If you do switch to forwarding integration, you will have to run an historical import on the last day (step 4), to import missed emails.

We will continue to keep you posted on the full resolution of the incident, and the import of missed messages.
