Outage in Salesforce

Performance Degradation

Resolved Minor
February 23, 2026 - Started 1 day ago - Lasted about 5 hours

Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

Salesforce experienced performance degradation affecting document generation functionality across multiple US instances for 4.7 hours. Users encountered intermittent failures, delays, and timeouts when generating PDFs, Word documents, and PowerPoint files, with some finding success by reloading screens. The issue was resolved by isolating a problematic data partition that was causing service instability and implementing optimizations to handle specific data processing patterns that exceeded service limits.

There’s a Salesforce service performance degradation. Users can access the Salesforce service, but some functionality can be unavailable or running at less than optimal performance. General and intermittent slow performance, timeouts, and connectivity issues are possible. We’re investigating the issue and an update will be provided in 30 minutes or sooner if we have more information.

UPDATE 1 day ago - at 02/24/2026 01:50AM

We are working to isolate the partition that has been identified as causing this issue. Once the change is ready for deployment this will be rolled out, and we expect this to bring customers out of impact with services restored. We cannot confirm an ETA for completion of this deployment at this time, and apologize to users for the continued disruption to the document generation function.

We will provide an update as soon as we can clarify the ETA for deployment, or if additional information becomes available.

UPDATE 1 day ago - at 02/24/2026 12:58AM

We are actively pursuing two separate paths to resolution for this issue, and both continue to progress. Once either path is ready to deploy, we will need to undertake rolling restarts which may have some limited continued impact on our users document generation capability. We have no ETA for when service will be fully restored at this time, however, we have a thorough understanding of the cause.

We will provide an update in 60 minutes, or sooner if additional information becomes available.

UPDATE 1 day ago - at 02/23/2026 11:58PM

Through our investigation, we have identified a specific data pattern that triggers service instability. We are currently implementing a remediation plan to optimize service processing and bypass the identified trigger. This action requires a brief, coordinated restart of service components, during which customers may continue to experience intermittent failures or timeouts when generating documents.

We will provide an update in 60 minutes, or sooner if additional information becomes available.

UPDATE 1 day ago - at 02/23/2026 11:00PM

The team has identified a technical trigger involving specific data processing patterns that exceed current service limits, leading to intermittent service restarts. To mitigate this, we have implemented an increase in service memory across the impacted environment to improve processing stability. Additionally, we are working with internal messaging service teams to isolate the specific requests contributing to the disruption and are preparing a software patch to prevent these patterns from impacting service availability.

We will provide an update in 60 minutes, or sooner if additional information becomes available.

UPDATE 1 day ago - at 02/23/2026 10:38PM

We continue to investigate the issue impacting a subset of instances.

The teams exploring multiple mitigation paths and is currently in the process of scaling service resources and performing a rolling restart of the impacted components. These actions are being taken as a measure to improve service stability while the investigation into the underlying technical trigger continues. Additionally, we are analyzing data processing patterns to identify any further contributing factors.

We will provide an update in 30 minutes, or sooner if additional information becomes available.

UPDATE 1 day ago - at 02/23/2026 10:10PM

At 10:47 UTC on February 23, 2026, we began investigating a document generation performance degradation impacting a subset of customers. As a result, users may experience intermittent failures or delays when attempting to generate documents, such as PDFs, docx file generation, or Power Point files. Some customers have reported success with reloading the screen to work around the issue.

We are currently investigating a technical trigger potentially related to service connectivity within the impacted environment. We are exploring multiple paths to resolution, including resource optimization and service restarts.

We will provide an update in 30 minutes, or sooner if additional information becomes available.

STARTTIMEREVISION 1 day ago - at 02/23/2026 09:58PM

Upon further investigation, the Salesforce Technology team has determined that the start time of impact is different than initially understood. We have now revised the start time of the Trust post to more accurately reflect the time customers may have begun to experience impact. We apologize for any confusion caused by this.
