## 🔍 What Happened

Some Google Business Profile (GBP) automated posts stopped publishing due to a bug in the AI image generation process. When image generation failed, the automation either skipped the post entirely or published it without an image. This issue has since been resolved on the backend, and automated posting should now be running normally across connected GBP locations.



## ⚙️ Why Some Locations Were Affected and Others Were Not

The bug did not affect every account or location equally. Whether a specific location was impacted depended on how that location's automation was configured — in particular, whether it relied on automatic image generation as part of the posting process. Locations that were not using image generation in their automation were less likely to be affected.



## ✅ How to Confirm Your Automations Are Working Again

Because the fix was applied on the backend, no configuration changes are required on your end. To confirm that automated posting has resumed for your locations, check whether new posts have appeared in your GBP locations after the fix was deployed. If new posts are showing up, your automation is running normally again.

If you are not seeing new posts and believe your automation should have resumed, please reach out to the Search Atlas support team so they can investigate the specific location on your behalf. Provide the affected location name(s) and a description of what you are seeing.
