Instructure issued a new Canvas developer key to Atomic Jolt and disabled the old one. They automatically enabled the new key for all customers that had enabled the previous Atomic Jolt developer key. The new Developer Key is named the same as the old one (Atomic Jolt App Installer). Instructure did this in response to observing anomalies in network traffic. The anomalous traffic appears to have been more widespread than just Atomic Jolt’s Canvas developer key because Instructure disabled dozens of vendor Canvas developer keys. Impact - Customers that used Atomic Polls and Discussions in Canvas experienced degraded functionality. Our research shows that the impacts were that teachers and admins were unable to use the applications. All aspects of the student experience continued to function as expected. Time frame of impact - Impact started when Instructure disabled Atomic Jolt’s API key at approximately 2:30am Mountain. Impact ended around 11:30 am when the Atomic Polls and Discussions were updated to use the new Canvas developer key issued by Instructure. Resolution - We’ve updated Atomic Polls and Discussions to use the new Canvas developer key. This will allow the applications to obtain new Canvas API tokens through an OAuth process. Re-authorizing applications - When teachers using Atomic Polls and Discussions access the tool the first time Canvas will ask the teacher to authorize the tool. It will only ask them to do that once.
