Scheduled database maintenance — brief write interruption
Clerk will perform planned database maintenance on Saturday 19 September 2026 between 13:30 and 14:30 UTC. Signed-in end users stay signed in and your application keeps working for them throughout. Within that window we expect a brief interruption of a few minutes, around 14:00 UTC, during which operations that write data — including new sign-ins and sign-ups — will be temporarily rejected. The window is wider than the expected impact to allow for preparation and verification. **What continues to work, including during the interruption** - Active sessions. Users already signed in remain signed in, and their session tokens continue to refresh normally. No one is signed out. - All read operations across the Frontend and Backend APIs — users, organizations, sessions, and other resources. - Session verification. Your backend can continue to verify session tokens as usual. **What is briefly unavailable during the interruption** - New sign-ins and sign-ups
