Affected pull request reviews failed to complete or post review comments.<br /><br />The incident was caused by a change to the service’s authentication permissions that prevented it from submitting affected reviews to the GitHub API. We reverted the change and restored normal operation by 22:26 UTC.<br /><br />We apologize for the disruption.
