Hi Folks,

Would it be possible for someone on the API team to let me know why I’m getting 500s from the API that just say Looks like something went wrong on our end.

I have the following request IDs:

01d47c14-3d96-49c6-aca9-cdbdd089b234

e4f005fb-006c-4f3b-b3b4-a3f8867b9e68

f9e8e864-d209-49d4-bba6-56a1eb377ec3

There are many more, but I suspect they’re caused by the same issue, whatever that might be.

Thanks very much!
