Yeah. I have been waiting for 15 hours. Issues like these should be picked up asap. Not take 24 hours or more.

Its a disaster for my business right now. Its been like that for the past 2-3 days. I have emailed bubble about it and they said they have not changed anything in the last 2-3 days.  
@gaimed do you have your workflows inside a reusable element?

For what it’s worth, @sam.morgan has been the most active Bubble support person in the forum these days, and per Josh’s advice, it never hurts to ping @bubble on an issue like this one.

The same.

Signups don’t complete anymore, a nightmare as we’ve launched or app few days ago and marketing guys are pushing hard to get subscribers, who can’t subscribe. That’s could be a failed launch, but that’s not an option.

IF the workflows will work, there is a huge delay. Most of the time they DO NOT COMPLETE

I think it has something to do with API workflows. Anyone having API workflows in their setup?

Yes mine are inside a reusable element (and previously where in a backend workflow). Both have problems.

Very strange. So I have the same workflow inside my app [https://nocodemayo.app/](https://nocodemayo.app/) but NOT inside a reusable element and calling a backend workflow with a create a account for someone else. It works fine (and its on a personal plan).

Same with an other app (on a professional plan) but then I call the backend workflow from inside a reusable element and that times out… Exactly the same steps in both apps.

On my side, personal plan, Sign-in work fine, signup fail. No api workflow, backend workflow only. No reusable element.

Problem with a DB cluster ?..

Sign-in works fine here too…

Signup whith with “bubble user” works fine too.

Signup with social network takes longer then usual. Longer enough to make users leave the page and only a blank user is created.

Mine are out of reusable elements.
