PDI OFFLINE 502 BAD GATEWAY

[EdgarQ]

I was making stuff earlier but now  i already cant access my PDI and instance status is off . Whats the current fix for this?

[Simon Hendery · Accepted solution]

The good news is that a 502 error means there's a connection issue, it's not a problem relating to you losing your instance permanently (and therefore all your work). 

There's still nothing you can do except wait. 

But when you get your instance back, take this as a timely reminder that you must do regular backups.

These things can disappear anytime, and sometimes the loss is permanent.

EDIT Jan 2026: 

I saw multiple people asking about this error with frequency, so I created this:
