Investigating
Affected feature: App/Intranet Space Administrative Access

A change was rolled out that inadvertently removed all administrators from the default Space. Please note that this does not affect Global Administrator access, or any Space that is not set as the default Space. If your organization does not have Spaces enabled, this outage does not affect you.

This issue is affecting customers on both US and DE servers. We are currently working diligently to restore all previous permissions to resolve this as fast as we can. We will share more information soon.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any questions regarding this topic, please reach out to our support at support@staffbase.com.
