## Updates from dbt Cloud

### resolved, 2026-09-02 17:57 UTC

The issue has been resolved, and all affected systems are now functioning normally as of 1:45 PM Eastern. Between 7:05 AM Eastern and 1:45 PM Eastern an issue with delayed metadata impacted the Discovery (Metadata) API in our EU2 region. We have put measures in place to prevent a recurrence and metadata ingestion has returned to normal. Please contact Support via email [support@getdbt.com](http://support@getdbt.com "support@getdbt.com") if you continue to experience delays and are unsure of the root cause.

### identified, 2026-09-02 16:29 UTC

We are continuing to work on implementing a fix, and we will provide an update as soon as more information is available.

### identified, 2026-09-02 15:01 UTC

Our team has identified the contributing factor and is actively working on a resolution. We'll provide updates at approximately 30-minute intervals or as soon as new information becomes available.

### investigating, 2026-09-02 11:05 UTC

We're investigating delayed metadata processing affecting the Discovery (Metadata) API in our EU2 region. Customers hosted in EU2 may see newly ingested metadata take up to a few hours to become available, along with intermittent latency on Discovery API requests. Job orchestration, the dbt platform UI, and all other services are not impacted and are running as expected. This is limited to the EU2 region.
