anyone else getting 503 from codeforces api?

Revision en1, by cgmoreda, 2026-04-12 21:54:30

hey, for the last few days i've been getting a raw html 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable from the codeforces api on contest.standings.

![ ](https://codeforces.me/d52a13/Screenshot 2026-04-12 205209.png)

unsigned requests seem to work, but when i use the signed/authenticated request, it fails. i already made a new api key too, same result.

also it's not the usual json api error response, it's just the actual 503 page.

is anyone else facing this recently? and is there any solution or workaround?

at this point i'm just trying to figure out whether this is something on my side or something on codeforces side.
