Final update

An incident affecting GitHub's API caused CircleCI customers to experience errors loading the web app and signing in, along with pipelines and scheduled workflows failing to start or running late. GitHub has resolved the underlying incident (https://www.githubstatus.com/) and all affected functionality has returned to normal. Customers whose jobs or pipelines failed may rerun them. Scheduled pipelines and workflows that were missed during the incident will not run automatically and will need to be re-triggered. We thank you for your patience.
