CircleCI
CircleCI is a cloud-based continuous integration and delivery platform that automates building, testing, and deploying code across any language or stack.
What is CircleCI?
Is CircleCI down? CircleCI is a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform that automates the build, test, and deployment pipeline for software development teams. Founded in 2011, CircleCI was among the first cloud-native CI/CD platforms and helped popularize automated pipelines in modern software engineering. It supports projects in virtually every major programming language and integrates natively with GitHub, Bitbucket, and GitLab.
CircleCI runs millions of build jobs per day for teams across startups, mid-market companies, and large enterprises. Engineers rely on CircleCI pipelines to catch bugs before they reach production, meaning that when CircleCI experiences an outage or performance degradation, development cycles grind to a halt. Pull requests pile up waiting for green CI checks, and deployment pipelines queue indefinitely.
CircleCI is down or not working — users commonly report builds stuck in a queued state, workflows failing to trigger on new commits, artifacts failing to upload, or the CircleCI dashboard becoming unavailable. A notable CircleCI security incident in January 2023 — where customers were advised to rotate all secrets — demonstrated the platform's deep integration into sensitive parts of the development supply chain.
If CircleCI is down, Outage.gg tracks CircleCI server status and outage history in real time. If your CircleCI builds are queued or failing, check the live status page to confirm whether it is a platform issue and get notified when pipeline processing returns to normal.

Common questions about CircleCI outages and server status.
You can check the live CircleCI server status at outage.gg/services/circleci. The page shows real-time community-submitted outage reports, an hourly trend chart, and the current health status.
CircleCI can stop working for a number of reasons including scheduled maintenance windows, unexpected server failures, network infrastructure problems, or DDoS attacks. Check the live status page on Outage.gg for the latest community reports to see if others are experiencing the same issue.
Go to outage.gg/services/circleci and click the "Report an Issue" button. Your report is counted immediately and helps confirm whether a problem is widespread. Reports from multiple users trigger a status change visible to everyone watching the page.
