EikonError-UDF Core request failed. Gateway Time-out

Today I observe perpetual

HTTP request failed: EikonError-Backend error. 500 Internal Server Error

and

HTTP request failed: EikonError-UDF Core request failed. Gateway Time-out

errors. No updates of the code or scope of RICs from my side. Same code used to work up to today morning.

Example:

(Pdb) p ek.__version__
'1.1.10'
(Pdb) p params
{'start_date': datetime.datetime(2021, 11, 23, 18, 10, tzinfo=<DstTzInfo 'Europe/Moscow' MSK+3:00:00 STD>), 'end_date': datetime.datetime(2021, 11, 23, 18, 40, tzinfo=<DstTzInfo 'Europe/Moscow' MSK+3:00:00 STD>), 'interval': 'minute', 'count': 1, 'calendar': 'tradingdays', 'corax': 'adjusted', 'normalize': True}
(Pdb) p sys.version
'3.8.8 (tags/v3.8.8:024d805, Feb 19 2021, 13:18:16) [MSC v.1928 64 bit (AMD64)]'

I have try/catch retries for errors like that, so I observe the following stream of alternating errors:

It appears Eikon terminal itself has issues with historical data today:

According to an answer on this thread, you need to contact Refinitiv Helpdesk via MyRefinitiv to verify what a problem is. The error messages indicate that a problem could be on Eikon or the server-side.
