Affected users received an error message ‘Your administrator has restricted Google Drive access to authorized devices. You have been logged out, and all Google Drive content related to your account has been wiped from this computer. Please contact your administrator to learn moreâ€? This message was erroneously triggered and no data was programmatically wiped.\nWe deeply regret the disruption our Google Drive for Desktop users experienced. We recognize the impact this had on your businesses, and we are truly sorry for falling short of your expectations. We have investigated the root cause of the issue and are implementing measures to improve the resilience of our services.\n## Root Cause\nThe root cause of the issue was an update to Drive's policy configuration. As part of this update, the admin setting that restricts Google Drive for desktop to authorized devices had its default unintentionally changed from FALSE to TRUE. This change took effect for domains which hadn't previously overridden the setting.\nAs a result, a number of users were unexpectedly prevented from launching the Google Drive for desktop application, requiring them to restart the application. The impact was limited to Windows and Mac devices used by Enterprise customers. The incident began at 18:27 US/Pacific on 15 July 2025 and deteriorated further on 16 July 2025.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nAt 18:27 US/Pacific on Tuesday, 15 July 2025, a 1% rollout release began causing minor impact. As the release progressed, the situation escalated significantly and became evident on Wednesday, 16 July 2025 from an increase in support cases. Our engineering team was alerted at 09:25 US/Pacific and immediately began the investigation.\nAs the first step to mitigate impact, Google engineers deployed a client-side mitigation to all Google Drive for desktop clients by 11:47 US/Pacific on Wednesday, 16 July 2025. This deployment disabled Enterprise Mobility Management support within Google Drive for Desktop. While this aimed to prevent further application launch blocks, it wasn't guaranteed to reach all devices before the block signal.\nConcurrently, a policy fix was deployed via a rollback. This rollback targeted the incorrect policy configuration that triggered the blocks, which completed at 17:16 US/Pacific on Wednesday, 16 July 2025.\nWe are deeply sorry for the length and severity of this incident. Google is committed to preventing a repeat of this incident in the future and we are completing the following actions :\n* Improve the error message displayed to our users when devices that are not company owned are blocked from using Google Drive for desktop.\n* Improve monitoring on the number and rate of policy related actions taken by Google Drive for desktop.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\nOn Tuesday, 15 July 2025 from 18:27 US/Pacific to Wednesday, 16 July 2025, 17:16 US/Pacific:\n#### Google Drive\nApproximately 1% users may have been prevented from launching Google Drive for desktop and encountered the error ‘Your administrator has restricted Google Drive access to authorized devices. You have been logged out, and all Google Drive content related to your account has been wiped from this computer. Please contact your administrator to learn more.’\nAs a temporary workaround, administrators were advised to manually disable the ‘Only allow Google Drive for desktop on authorized devicesâ€?setting to prevent blocks on their managed devices.\n## Additional Information for Customers\nOnce the incident was mitigated, users who exited the application without taking any further action were able to access the application after they relaunched it using existing account configuration. Some users who may have disconnected their account using the button that was presented as an option, were able to regain access after signing into the application and performing additional actions to reconfigure any mirror roots and re-pin any files that required offline availability. These users who disconnected their account may also have had to download the files again that were previously cached.","status":"AVAILABLE"},{"created":"2025-08-07T17:41:09+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T08:22:38+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T17:41:09+00:00","text":"# Mini Incident Report\nWe apologize for the inconvenience this service disruption/outage may have caused.

To recover we bypassed the offending quota check, which allowed recovery in most regions within 2 hours. However, the quota policy database in us-central1 became overloaded, resulting in much longer recovery in that region. Several products had moderate residual impact (e.g. backlogs) for up to an hour after the primary issue was mitigated and a small number recovering after that.\nGoogle will complete a full Incident Report in the following days that will provide a detailed root cause.\n**Customer Impact:**\nCustomers had intermittent API and user-interface access issues to the impacted services.

We know you rely on our services, and we fell short of meeting your expectations. We are committed to improving our platform's reliability and performance, and we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability.\n## Root Cause\nThe root cause has been determined to be permission errors that impeded NotebookLM's access to the necessary underlying model.\nSubsequent to a recent configuration change, the model was assigned to incorrect access control lists (ACLs) by the internal router that manages the models. This change resulted in the NotebookLM model being associated with a default model family possessing more stringent access controls.\nTherefore, the NotebookLM model encountered permission errors, and incoming requests were rejected, culminating in customer inability to utilize the impacted features.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nGoogle engineers were alerted of the outage from our internal monitoring system on March 10, 2025, at 03:50 US/Pacific, and immediately started an investigation. Once the underlying cause was identified, Google engineers added the required access controls to the default model at 06:30 US/Pacific to fully mitigate the impact.\nGoogle is committed to preventing a repeat of this issue in the future and is completing the following actions:\n* Implement a failsafe mechanism on the internal system that manages the Machine Learning (ML) models. This will prevent similar issues from occurring due to unintended configuration changes.\n* Updating the configuration of the router to bypass the access control check when models are moved to the internal system.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\nBetween 03:50 US/Pacific and 06:30 US/Pacific on Monday, 10 March 2025, NotebookLM and Enterprise users were unable to use chat, upload sources, or use interactive audio. Customers experienced errors up to 100% due to this incident related to permission errors.","status":"AVAILABLE"},{"created":"2025-08-07T18:09:22+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T12:15:06+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T18:09:22+00:00","text":"# Mini Incident Report\nWe apologize for the inconvenience this service disruption/outage may have caused.

As a result of these missing permissions, we rejected incoming requests, leading to users being unable to use the affected features.\nEngineers identified the root cause within the permissions system, and implemented a code change to resolve the issue.\nWe apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

We know you rely on our services, and we fell short of meeting your expectations. We are committed to improving our platform's reliability and performance, and we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability.\n## Root Cause\nThe root cause has been determined to be permission errors that impeded NotebookLM's access to the necessary underlying model.\nSubsequent to a recent configuration change, the model was assigned to incorrect access control lists (ACLs) by the internal router that manages the models. This change resulted in the NotebookLM model being associated with a default model family possessing more stringent access controls.\nTherefore, the NotebookLM model encountered permission errors, and incoming requests were rejected, culminating in customer inability to utilize the impacted features.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nGoogle engineers were alerted of the outage from our internal monitoring system on March 10, 2025, at 03:50 US/Pacific, and immediately started an investigation. Once the underlying cause was identified, Google engineers added the required access controls to the default model at 06:30 US/Pacific to fully mitigate the impact.\nGoogle is committed to preventing a repeat of this issue in the future and is completing the following actions:\n* Implement a failsafe mechanism on the internal system that manages the Machine Learning (ML) models. This will prevent similar issues from occurring due to unintended configuration changes.\n* Updating the configuration of the router to bypass the access control check when models are moved to the internal system.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\nBetween 03:50 US/Pacific and 06:30 US/Pacific on Monday, 10 March 2025, NotebookLM and Enterprise users were unable to use chat, upload sources, or use interactive audio. Customers experienced errors up to 100% due to this incident related to permission errors.","status":"AVAILABLE"},"status_impact":"SERVICE_OUTAGE","severity":"high","service_key":"sqTm5ZmzCmb66kvyzcNS","service_name":"NotebookLM","affected_products":[{"title":"NotebookLM","id":"sqTm5ZmzCmb66kvyzcNS"}],"uri":"incidents/pJzo6KcR37eV8bCLdXgS"},{"id":"H8N8DzxWuLAMcZ2Dgjdj","number":"13875903582452877296","begin":"2025-08-07T15:06:00+00:00","created":"2025-08-07T23:17:56+00:00","end":"2025-08-07T20:51:00+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T23:25:55+00:00","external_desc":"### **Summary:**\nSome customers were unable to send SMS on Google Voice.\n### **Description:**\nWe have experienced an issue with Google Voice beginning on Monday, 2025-08-07 at 07:06 US/Pacific.\nOur engineering team has applied the fix which has successfully mitigated the issue.\nWe apologize to all who were affected by the disruption.\n### **Diagnosis:**\nImpacted customers may have received an error message stating ‘The message violates our Acceptable Use Policyâ€?\nThe issue has impacted only consumer users and not Google Workspace users.\n### **Workaround:**\nCustomers may retry to send the SMS which might have resolved the issue.

We apologize to our customers affected by the recent service interruption. This is not the level of quality and reliability we strive to offer you, and we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability.\n## Root Cause\nIn December 2024, Google engineers introduced a new internal service to facilitate access to customer metadata as part of storage consolidation efforts. As part of this change, we made configuration changes to read APIs for customer data which were implemented in stages to fully adopt this new service. These read APIs act as a canonical source of truth for validating the users. However, on Tuesday, 28 January, 2025, this service experienced elevated latency for all read APIs resulting in timeout with deadline exceeded errors thereby resulting in latency on the Admin Console.\nThis was triggered by a high error rate observed in a specific task associated with an internal customer data service. This service provides customer data to the system hosting the internal read APIs. The root cause of the issue was identified as the following factors:\n* Increased latency on ‘readâ€?operations from the data storage system.\n* High latency in internal communication due to the increased time spent waiting for the affected task to be processed.\nDue to these factors, processing threads were unavailable to handle incoming requests quickly, creating a backlog and ultimately leading to timeouts, and errors.\nThe resulting impact was elevated error rates and latency for this internal read API, causing downstream service disruptions and impacting availability for Administrators, the Admin Console.\nThe impact also cascaded to Workspace Customer Support, resulting in approximately 10% of customers being unable to create support cases and initiate chats.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nGoogle engineers were alerted to the outage via our internal monitoring system on Tuesday, 28 January, 2025, at 07:26 US/Pacific and immediately started an investigation. Once the nature and scope of the issue became clear, Google engineers re-directed traffic away from the impacted metadata service to an alternate service. Because both services utilized the same underlying data, there were no issues with respect to data consistency.\nWe apologize for the length and severity of this incident. We are taking immediate steps to prevent a recurrence and improve reliability in the future.\n* Perform configuration changes to improve the performance of the service.\n* Add a mandatory check of server’s configuration for every change made to production to ensure high quality of service before going live.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\nOn 28 January, 2025 from 07:26 to 09:34 US/Pacific:\n### Workspace Admin Console and Help Assistant\n* Some customers experienced elevated latency and â€?00â€?errors when accessing the Admin console.\n* Some customers could access Admin Console normally, but experienced issues launching ‘Help Assistantâ€?\n### Workspace Support\n* Some customers experienced issues attempting to open new support cases via Workspace support portal and chat.\n* Customers that had issues with opening cases via the support portal were redirected to our backup Contact Us Form (CUF).\n* Customers that had issues opening cases via chat were redirected to the support portal to create email based cases.","status":"AVAILABLE"},{"created":"2025-08-07T00:59:18+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T08:28:43+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T00:59:18+00:00","text":"## Mini Incident Report\nWe apologize for the inconvenience this service outage may have caused.

We apologize to our customers affected by the recent service interruption. This is not the level of quality and reliability we strive to offer you, and we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability.\n## Root Cause\nIn December 2024, Google engineers introduced a new internal service to facilitate access to customer metadata as part of storage consolidation efforts. As part of this change, we made configuration changes to read APIs for customer data which were implemented in stages to fully adopt this new service. These read APIs act as a canonical source of truth for validating the users. However, on Tuesday, 28 January, 2025, this service experienced elevated latency for all read APIs resulting in timeout with deadline exceeded errors thereby resulting in latency on the Admin Console.\nThis was triggered by a high error rate observed in a specific task associated with an internal customer data service. This service provides customer data to the system hosting the internal read APIs. The root cause of the issue was identified as the following factors:\n* Increased latency on ‘readâ€?operations from the data storage system.\n* High latency in internal communication due to the increased time spent waiting for the affected task to be processed.\nDue to these factors, processing threads were unavailable to handle incoming requests quickly, creating a backlog and ultimately leading to timeouts, and errors.\nThe resulting impact was elevated error rates and latency for this internal read API, causing downstream service disruptions and impacting availability for Administrators, the Admin Console.\nThe impact also cascaded to Workspace Customer Support, resulting in approximately 10% of customers being unable to create support cases and initiate chats.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nGoogle engineers were alerted to the outage via our internal monitoring system on Tuesday, 28 January, 2025, at 07:26 US/Pacific and immediately started an investigation. Once the nature and scope of the issue became clear, Google engineers re-directed traffic away from the impacted metadata service to an alternate service. Because both services utilized the same underlying data, there were no issues with respect to data consistency.\nWe apologize for the length and severity of this incident. We are taking immediate steps to prevent a recurrence and improve reliability in the future.\n* Perform configuration changes to improve the performance of the service.\n* Add a mandatory check of server’s configuration for every change made to production to ensure high quality of service before going live.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\nOn 28 January, 2025 from 07:26 to 09:34 US/Pacific:\n### Workspace Admin Console and Help Assistant\n* Some customers experienced elevated latency and â€?00â€?errors when accessing the Admin console.\n* Some customers could access Admin Console normally, but experienced issues launching ‘Help Assistantâ€?\n### Workspace Support\n* Some customers experienced issues attempting to open new support cases via Workspace support portal and chat.\n* Customers that had issues with opening cases via the support portal were redirected to our backup Contact Us Form (CUF).\n* Customers that had issues opening cases via chat were redirected to the support portal to create email based cases.","status":"AVAILABLE"},"status_impact":"SERVICE_INFORMATION","severity":"low","service_key":"xrkLpNMHAvPQczcU2uSb","service_name":"Admin Console","affected_products":[{"title":"Admin Console","id":"xrkLpNMHAvPQczcU2uSb"}],"uri":"incidents/GzAY5HvYqA9MhjB9ZkSL"},{"id":"FoXARVPND3oeDBu6tLuT","number":"5200787915827209729","begin":"2025-08-07T14:00:00+00:00","created":"2025-08-07T15:34:38+00:00","end":"2025-08-07T17:36:00+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T18:20:38+00:00","external_desc":"Some Workspace Support customers are experiencing issues with creating customer cases\nWe are experiencing an issue with Workspace Support beginning at Tuesday, 2025-08-07 06:00 US/Pacific.\nOur engineering team continues to investigate the issue.\nWe will provide an update by Tuesday, 2025-08-07 08:15 US/Pacific with current details.\nWe apologize to all who are affected by the disruption.\nCustomer Symptoms: Some customers may experience an error with creating customer cases.\nWorkaround: After several unsuccessful attempts the customers would be guided to use the Contact Us Form as a backup.","updates":[{"created":"2025-08-07T18:01:55+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T18:20:38+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T18:01:55+00:00","text":"The issue with Google Cloud Support has been resolved for all affected users as of Tuesday, 2025-08-07 09:36 US/Pacific.\nOur preliminary analysis shows the issue was triggered by a software rollout and the issue was mitigated by redirecting the traffic away from the impacted clusters and performing a rollback.\nWe thank you for your patience while we worked on resolving the issue.","status":"AVAILABLE"},{"created":"2025-08-07T17:40:42+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T18:01:55+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T17:40:42+00:00","text":"Mitigation work is completed by our engineering team.\nOur internal monitoring shows that the errors have subsided and we believe that there is no more customer impact.

For example, “TestUser@gmail.comâ€?would be normalized to “testuser@gmail.com.â€\nA recent server-side feature release introduced an issue where the backend authentication server began returning non-normalized email addresses.

To our Gmail for iOS users who were impacted by this issue, we sincerely apologize. This is not the level of quality and reliability we strive to offer you, and we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability.\n## Root Cause\nThe Gmail iOS application uses a Google-wide SSO client library to authenticate all accounts on a given device with a backend authentication server. This includes a lookup of account IDs and their corresponding email addresses. Email addresses are returned from the authentication server normalized to avoid potential formatting conflicts. For example, “TestUser@gmail.comâ€?would be normalized to “testuser@gmail.com.â€\nA recent server-side feature release introduced an issue where the backend authentication server began returning non-normalized email addresses. This resulted in a formatting mismatch where the Gmail iOS application was unable to match account IDs to the normalized email addresses stored in memory when the application was initially launched, causing the application to crash.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nGoogle engineers were alerted to the issue via internal monitoring on 18 October 2024 at 11:58 US/Pacific and immediately started an investigation.\nEngineers rolled back two recent updates to identity endpoints used by Gmail iOS to mitigate impact on 19 October 2024 at 17:15 US/Pacific.\nGoogle is committed to preventing a repeat of this issue in the future and is completing the following actions:\n* Make Gmail iOS more resilient to identity endpoint changes\n* Limit these identity changes to in-scope users\n* Improved attribution of future backend production changes\n## Detailed Description of Impact\nBetween 18 October 2024 at 11:30 US/Pacific and 19 October 2024 at 17:15 US/Pacific, approximately 2.6M users of Gmail for iOS experienced foreground crashes on application startup.\nImpact was limited to the Gmail application for the iOS platform.

Impacted users may have encountered errors when attempting to access Gmail via IMAP / web / mobile clients.\nTo our affected customers, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this disruption may have caused. Our engineers have been focused on the investigation and analysis that followed, in order to ensure this issue does not recur.\n## Root Cause\nOur engineering team has conducted a thorough investigation of the underlying cause and has identified a combination of factors that led to the issue:\n- A previously unknown condition existed in our system that, when triggered, could result in performance slowdowns and errors when the service instances are restarted during high-load situations.\n- A recent change that was introduced to improve the efficiency of our system interacted negatively with an ongoing unrelated canary-testing of another system configuration.

During the time, ingress traffic to europe-west2 and egress traffic from europe-west2 experienced elevated latencies, connection timeouts, and connection failures.\n## Root Cause\nOn 12 August 2024 06:20 US/Pacific, primary and backup power feeds were both lost in a [Google Point of Presence (POP)](https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/edge-locations) due to a substation switchgear failure. The affected POP hosts about â…?of serving first-layer [Google Front Ends (GFEs)](https://cloud.google.com/docs/security/infrastructure/design#google-frontend-service) located in europe-west2 and some distributed networking equipment for that region. The power loss impacted the following Google products and services that depend on GFEs in that region:\n* Google Cloud APIs, Google Workspace, and other Google services like YouTube,\n* Customer-created global external application and proxy network load balancers, including Cloud CDN\nThe power loss also impacted the following Google Cloud products which depended on impacted networking equipment:\n* Customer-created regional external application, proxy network, and passthrough network load balancers in the europe-west2 region,\n* External protocol forwarding and VM external IP address connectivity for VMs in the europe-west2 region.\n* Google Cloud Interconnect connections in some LHR colocation facilities.\nImpact was limited to situations where either or both of the following was true:\n* Inbound requests or connections were routed into the europe-west2 region of Google’s network, from the Internet, and those requests or connections depended on networking equipment that was offline, or unreachable pending reconvergence.\n* Outbound responses were routed to the Internet, from the europe-west2 region of Google’s network, and those responses depended on networking equipment that was without power.\nThe power outage caused Internet routes advertised by Google to be withdrawn in networks connected to Google’s network. The withdrawn routes were automatically replaced by other Google-advertised routes that didn’t depend on impacted networking equipment. Withdrawing and replacing routes relies on the BGP protocol and its timers, so replacement route convergence is not instantaneous, and overloading in the automatically selected replacement route GFEs extended the duration of the incident.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\n* Google Workspace: _Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Chat, Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Meet and Google Tasks users connecting to Workspace services from the UK region and surrounding areas experienced connectivity issues as described in the next point.\n* GFE-based products and services: _Customers on the Internet experienced a spike of broken connections followed by elevated latencies or HTTP error responses when communicating with GFE-powered Google APIs and services or customer-created global external application and proxy network load balancers. At roughly 06:23 US/Pacific, Google automatically redirected connections to the nearest possible first-layer GFEs with some latency penalty. Unfortunately, some of the nearest possible first-layer GFEs were overloaded until 06:48 when Google engineers made adjustments to more efficiently distribute incoming requests among nearby first-layer GFEs. Depending on the Google API or service or the customer-created global external load balancer, elevated latencies could have persisted until about 08:30 US/Pacific. Elevated latencies also could have applied to customer-created global external load balancers that had Cloud CDN enabled.\n* Regional Google Cloud products and services: _Until replacement routes were in effect, customers on the Internet experienced connection failures to the following GCP resources in the europe-west2 region: * Regional external application, proxy network, and passthrough network load balancers. * External protocol forwarding and VM external IP addresses.\n* Google Cloud Interconnect: _Google Cloud Interconnect connections in some LHR colocation facilities (lhr-zone1-47, lhr-zone1-832, lhr-zone1-2262, lhr-zone1-4885, lhr-zone1-99051 and lhr-zone2-47) remained offline from 06:20 US/Pacific to at least 06:57 US/Pacific, when power was restored.\nAt 06:43 US/Pacific, power was restored to the impacted networking equipment. Google networking equipment was fully operational by 06:57 US/Pacific, and connectivity to GFE-based products and services, regional Google Cloud products and services, and Google Cloud Interconnect resumed shortly thereafter.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nMultiple Google engineering teams were alerted and automated recovery tooling was triggered as expected; however, manual adjustments were required to address subsequent first-layer GFE overload. Google is reviewing automation improvements in tasks that required manual intervention to reduce the duration of future power event impact. Similarly, Google is working to increase Cloud Interconnect control plane resilience and reduce mitigation time through automated reaction to isolation events.\nAdditionally Google's partner who maintains the affected facility power in LHR (London) is conducting a full root cause analysis with the switchboard manufacturer and substation owner(s) involved in supplying power, including follow up as to why stored or generated on-site emergency power did not carry loads.","status":"AVAILABLE"},{"created":"2025-08-07T19:33:02+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T19:33:02+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T19:33:02+00:00","text":"A mini incident report has been posted to\nhttps://status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ETJGhvY9Xaktw7tgi8dF","status":"AVAILABLE"},{"created":"2025-08-07T15:39:36+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T15:39:36+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T15:39:36+00:00","text":"The issue with Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Chat, Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Tasks has been resolved for all affected users as of Monday, 2025-08-07 08:35 US/Pacific.\nDuring the issue, users connecting to Workspace services from the UK region may have experienced connectivity issues.\nWe will publish an analysis of this incident once we have completed our internal investigation.\nWe thank you for your patience while we worked on resolving the issue.","status":"AVAILABLE"},{"created":"2025-08-07T15:16:40+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T15:16:40+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T15:16:40+00:00","text":"**SUMMARY**\nMultiple Workspace services experienced brief connectivity issues for users connecting from the UK region\n**DESCRIPTION**\nWe have experienced an issue with Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar, Google Docs, Google Chat, Google Tasks beginning at Monday, 2025-08-07 06:28 US/Pacific.

During the time, ingress traffic to europe-west2 and egress traffic from europe-west2 experienced elevated latencies, connection timeouts, and connection failures.\n## Root Cause\nOn 12 August 2024 06:20 US/Pacific, primary and backup power feeds were both lost in a [Google Point of Presence (POP)](https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/edge-locations) due to a substation switchgear failure. The affected POP hosts about â…?of serving first-layer [Google Front Ends (GFEs)](https://cloud.google.com/docs/security/infrastructure/design#google-frontend-service) located in europe-west2 and some distributed networking equipment for that region. The power loss impacted the following Google products and services that depend on GFEs in that region:\n* Google Cloud APIs, Google Workspace, and other Google services like YouTube,\n* Customer-created global external application and proxy network load balancers, including Cloud CDN\nThe power loss also impacted the following Google Cloud products which depended on impacted networking equipment:\n* Customer-created regional external application, proxy network, and passthrough network load balancers in the europe-west2 region,\n* External protocol forwarding and VM external IP address connectivity for VMs in the europe-west2 region.\n* Google Cloud Interconnect connections in some LHR colocation facilities.\nImpact was limited to situations where either or both of the following was true:\n* Inbound requests or connections were routed into the europe-west2 region of Google’s network, from the Internet, and those requests or connections depended on networking equipment that was offline, or unreachable pending reconvergence.\n* Outbound responses were routed to the Internet, from the europe-west2 region of Google’s network, and those responses depended on networking equipment that was without power.\nThe power outage caused Internet routes advertised by Google to be withdrawn in networks connected to Google’s network. The withdrawn routes were automatically replaced by other Google-advertised routes that didn’t depend on impacted networking equipment. Withdrawing and replacing routes relies on the BGP protocol and its timers, so replacement route convergence is not instantaneous, and overloading in the automatically selected replacement route GFEs extended the duration of the incident.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\n* Google Workspace: _Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Chat, Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Meet and Google Tasks users connecting to Workspace services from the UK region and surrounding areas experienced connectivity issues as described in the next point.\n* GFE-based products and services: _Customers on the Internet experienced a spike of broken connections followed by elevated latencies or HTTP error responses when communicating with GFE-powered Google APIs and services or customer-created global external application and proxy network load balancers. At roughly 06:23 US/Pacific, Google automatically redirected connections to the nearest possible first-layer GFEs with some latency penalty. Unfortunately, some of the nearest possible first-layer GFEs were overloaded until 06:48 when Google engineers made adjustments to more efficiently distribute incoming requests among nearby first-layer GFEs. Depending on the Google API or service or the customer-created global external load balancer, elevated latencies could have persisted until about 08:30 US/Pacific. Elevated latencies also could have applied to customer-created global external load balancers that had Cloud CDN enabled.\n* Regional Google Cloud products and services: _Until replacement routes were in effect, customers on the Internet experienced connection failures to the following GCP resources in the europe-west2 region: * Regional external application, proxy network, and passthrough network load balancers. * External protocol forwarding and VM external IP addresses.\n* Google Cloud Interconnect: _Google Cloud Interconnect connections in some LHR colocation facilities (lhr-zone1-47, lhr-zone1-832, lhr-zone1-2262, lhr-zone1-4885, lhr-zone1-99051 and lhr-zone2-47) remained offline from 06:20 US/Pacific to at least 06:57 US/Pacific, when power was restored.\nAt 06:43 US/Pacific, power was restored to the impacted networking equipment. Google networking equipment was fully operational by 06:57 US/Pacific, and connectivity to GFE-based products and services, regional Google Cloud products and services, and Google Cloud Interconnect resumed shortly thereafter.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nMultiple Google engineering teams were alerted and automated recovery tooling was triggered as expected; however, manual adjustments were required to address subsequent first-layer GFE overload. Google is reviewing automation improvements in tasks that required manual intervention to reduce the duration of future power event impact. Similarly, Google is working to increase Cloud Interconnect control plane resilience and reduce mitigation time through automated reaction to isolation events.\nAdditionally Google's partner who maintains the affected facility power in LHR (London) is conducting a full root cause analysis with the switchboard manufacturer and substation owner(s) involved in supplying power, including follow up as to why stored or generated on-site emergency power did not carry loads.","status":"AVAILABLE"},"status_impact":"SERVICE_DISRUPTION","severity":"medium","service_key":"wNHuVFtZEWU5Mmj2eRCK","service_name":"Google Docs","affected_products":[{"title":"Google Docs","id":"wNHuVFtZEWU5Mmj2eRCK"}],"uri":"incidents/5AjHWPCTCP5uenZRjuwz"},{"id":"r6q8Wfdmf8PPJtdjQ8uH","number":"2450934655095805328","begin":"2025-08-07T13:20:00+00:00","created":"2025-08-07T15:03:39+00:00","end":"2025-08-07T15:32:00+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T21:50:05+00:00","external_desc":"**SUMMARY**\nMultiple Workspace services experienced brief connectivity issues for users connecting from the UK region\n**DESCRIPTION**\nWe have experienced an issue with Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar, Google Docs, Google Chat, Google Tasks beginning at Monday, 2025-08-07 06:28 US/Pacific.

During the incident, affected users experienced issues with email attachment and delivery functionalities in Gmail, and upload operations in Google Drive.\nTo our Gmail and Google Drive customers, we apologize for the impact this service disruption had on your organization. We have completed an internal investigation and are taking immediate steps to improve the quality and reliability of our services.\n## Root Cause\nAs part of a standard data operation, we restored a large volume of data into an internal Bigtable database. This operation resulted in Bigtable servers being overloaded.\nDuring the restore operation, Bigtable identified certain tablets as ‘unloadableâ€?and added the corresponding entries into a [1]Chubby file, as expected. As the file size grew, it exceeded the memory limit allocated for Chubby, resulting in Bigtable being unable to write to the file.\nThe cumulative impact of these events led to a subset of Bigtable instances entering a degraded state, impacting read/write operations. These instances store internal data for Gmail and Google Drive, which consequently affected the performance of those services.\n[1] - https://research.google/pubs/the-chubby-lock-service-for-loosely-coupled-distributed-systems\n## Remediation and Prevention\nGoogle engineers were alerted to the issue on Thursday, 8 Aug 2024 at 11:58 US/Pacific via our monitoring system. Once the nature and scope of the issue were understood, our engineers devised and executed a multi-pronged approach to address the root cause and mitigate impact. The Chubby quota was increased to address the memory issue, while traffic from the affected instances was re-routed to avoid further impact. To ensure that any degraded instances were addressed, Bigtable master servers for the affected instances were successfully restarted. Impact was fully mitigated by 16:16 US/Pacific.\nGoogle is committed to quickly and continually improving our technology and operations to prevent service disruptions. We appreciate your patience and apologize again for the impact to your organization. We thank you for your business.\nWe are committed to preventing a repeat of this issue in the future and are completing the following actions:\n* We have completed a deep analysis of our Bigtable instances and ensured that the Chubby space quota limits and configurations are optimal across all instances.\n* We are working on enhancing our monitoring for Chubby quota usage in Bigtable to enable early detection and prevention of potential issues.\n* We will establish clear guidelines on the recommended volume of data that can be safely restored at any given time, minimizing the risk of service disruptions.\n* We have enhanced the logic for diverting traffic from Bigtable clusters to ensure smoother transitions and minimal impact on users.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\nOn Thursday, 8 August 2024 from 12:06 to 16:16 US/Pacific, Gmail and Google Drive experienced service degradation for a duration of 4 hours and 10 minutes.\n#### Gmail\nAffected users experienced issues with attachment functionality wherein they were unable to send emails or save drafts containing attachments. There was no impact to emails sent without attachments.\n#### Google Drive\nAffected users may have observed degraded performance while performing upload operations.","status":"AVAILABLE"},"status_impact":"SERVICE_DISRUPTION","severity":"medium","service_key":"prPt2Yra2CbGsbEm9cpC","service_name":"Gmail","affected_products":[{"title":"Gmail","id":"prPt2Yra2CbGsbEm9cpC"}],"uri":"incidents/G4vfJGa9LyWQjK4hiiHA"},{"id":"sowQNioouYdVq6hNkZti","number":"13750020100651141057","begin":"2025-08-07T15:00:00+00:00","created":"2025-08-07T05:06:42+00:00","end":"2025-08-07T10:29:00+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T19:46:47+00:00","external_desc":"### **Summary:**\nChromeOS sign in issues affecting multiple customers throughout the globe\n### **Description:**\nWe are experiencing an issue with ChromeOS.\nOur engineering team continues to investigate the issue.\nWe will provide an update by Tuesday, 2025-08-07 23:30 US/Pacific with current details.\n### **Diagnosis:**\nDuring the full sign in process ChromeOS devices complete the sign in process (even Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) if applicable) but are eventually brought back to the login page.\nThe issue is affecting multiple ChromeOS versions\n### **Workaround:**\nNone at this time.","updates":[{"created":"2025-08-07T19:46:47+00:00","modified":"2025-08-07T19:46:47+00:00","when":"2025-08-07T19:46:47+00:00","text":"# Incident Report\n## Summary\nOn 06 August at 08:00 US/Pacific, Chrome OS devices experienced issues with logins globally for a duration of 19 hours 29 minutes.
