The webpage is fine but this endpoint...

https://api.chess.com/pub/match/1754307

{"code":0,"message":"An internal error has occurred. Please contact Chess.com Developer's Forum for further help https://www.chess.com/club/chess-com-developer-community ."}

Things do seem to be deteriorating because a routine I've been using for years without any failures is suddenly crashing because of broken match endpoints.

I've fixed my code to capture these rare cases but I'm wondering what's suddenly changed?

I have seen this before. Often they refresh after about 24 hours. If not then it's a call to support sadly.

That would be downtime, since it's one of the top endpoints, if not the top endpoint, of the Chess.com Published-Data API. It may at times be partially down. Anecdotally, that URL currently works for me right now. I looked for a status page but my search turned up empty.

How are you using the term "downtime"?

But yes, that endpoint seems to be working again 🍷 🎈
