This issue is now resolved for all users.

• Current status and recent actions taken: We implemented a fix to a backend configuration that resolves the issue. Users are able to upload/download images and files in Slack as intended.
• Scope: Users across all regions may have experienced trouble uploading/downloading images and files in Slack.
• Previous impact to end users: Users may have observed delays when uploading/downloading images and files in Slack. For users who received errors during the incident, the uploads were unsuccessful. For users who did not receive an error after uploading their file but were unable to view it, those files are intact and available. All files uploaded before this issue are available.

Thank you for your patience as we worked to resolve this issue. We apologize for any disruptions to your day.
