Is the Assistants API down?

API
1

We are trying to create assistant using the Assistants API, but it seems to be not connecting. When we debug the code, it is taking forever to connect. Any idea?

Below is the code we are using:

my_assistant = self.client.beta.assistants.create(
            instructions=instructions,
            name=name,
            model=constants.TEXT_MODEL_GPT4,
        )

The same code was working few hours ago. No change in the code.

Apologies for the trouble here – we’re actively investigating the issue and working on bringing it back up.

Still down for me an hour later…did everyone go home?

Two different apps — different domains — both use Assistants API…
