User presence is unexpectedly changing
Issue Summary: From 4:00 PM PDT on October 31, 2023 to 2:00 PM PDT on November 9, 2023, user presence would unexpectedly change to away or inactive. We determined that an error during a routine system optimization on connectivity state caused this issue. We reverted the change which fixed the issue for all affected customers. Thank you for your patience while we resolved this.
