Problems with ASF search download today?

[ben.wright_davra]

Hi there,

I'm having problems with the downloading of Sentinel-1 SLC files today, same code has been working fine previously. Are there any problems currently with the ASF search API for python?

See screenshots attached.

Thanks in advance,

Ben

Hello Ben,
The data distribution service at ASF is currently down. We're investigating the problem, and I'll let you know when the service has been restored.

Thanks for your patience.

Hello Ben,
ASF data distribution is back online. Please let us know if you run into any problems.

Hi there,

Testing locally and I believe things are working again - is there anywhere I can check to determine if there's a known problem with the ASF services instead of reaching out via the forum - like a live status?

Thanks in advance,

Ben

Best to check Vertex if you suspect a system issue. The team is very prompt in posting notifications regarding data access issues as soon as they are aware of them, including scheduled and unscheduled outages.

Ben,
Sorry, I was too quick in my response yesterday! There is an API "health check" available:

Excellent, thank you - I'll have a look at that!

Thanks again,
