Is the notarization service down?

Hi,

Notarization is taking ages and doesn't complete. Is the service down?

  • Hi, we are seeing the same problem! What's going on with the Apple service?

Hi, We are seeing this issue on our end as well. I guess the status here: https://developer.apple.com/system-status/ is wrong?

Are you still seeing this?

Are you using notarytool? Or the now-deprecated-at-least-for-notarisation-work [1] altool?

The reason this last point matters is that altool takes a more convoluted path to the notary service, so I’ve seen situations where it breaks while notarytool continues to work. There’s no guarantee that this is what’s happening here, but it’s always worth testing.
