Hello @Gavin.Taylor ,

Sorry to hear about your site being down.

Your site is probably one of the many sites that Atlassian accidentally wiped out during recent maintenance.

Many Atlassian customers are currently experiencing the same thing, including us, since April 5th.

Basically, a maintenance task at Atlassian went wrong somehow, and an unknown number of sites were disabled / removed / deactivated. They're currently figuring out how to recover from this and get everyone online.

There are some other service desk threads in community that have more information about this situation as well.

We received an update on our support ticket this morning that said they have now restored 23% of the sites, but there is still not an actual estimated time for completion yet.

If you want to raise a support ticket, Atlassian has said that you can submit the support form as a billing problem (which will not require the cloud URL, as that won't currently exist) and then they will transfer it to the correct team internally.

As mentioned above, they have been monitoring the forums and creating support requests from forum posts, so hopefully they have done that for you as well.

Best wishes for a speedy site recovery.

Hello,
We apologize for the length of this ongoing incident and for not being more proactive in our communication with you. We understand how mission-critical our products are for you and want to make sure we are relaying the most accurate information possible.

While we really want to get in front of you live to answer your questions, we are prioritizing getting customers up and running first and foremost. We will host an AMA (Ask Me Anything) after we get all of our customers fully restored.

In the meantime, please add your questions here and we will respond as quickly and transparently as we can. Some questions may not be answered until we do an official PIR, but we will let you know that and answer as much as we can now.

Our Chief Technology Officer Sri Viswanath has posted a blog about this incident with more background and details, and our team is working around the clock to move through the various stages for restoration.

We are working 24/7 to restore your service. Thank you to those who have been sharing all the information you know from your support requests. Thank you for being open, honest, and caring for your fellow Community members. This speaks a lot about what makes Community a special place.

Lastly, if you're unsure if a support request was raised on your behalf, please let me know, and I will personally check. My team and I went through all Community posts related to this incident to ensure everyone's site had a support request.

Regards,
