Dear all,

Hope you are well. I having issue when calling web request to [https://xxxxxx.eu.auth0.com/delegation](https://xxxxxx.eu.auth0.com/delegation). The response was “The remote server returned an error: (504) Gateway Timeout.”

I am wondering is the Auth0 service down?

server error response code indicates that the server, while acting as a gateway or proxy, did not get a response in time from the upstream server that it needed in order to complete the request.
