Since yesterday morning (european time Zone) my trackables are no longer "discovered". The Queue of Jobs for this function is getting longer and longer.

- When does this function work again?

closed with the note: The function seems to work - at least the queue is almost back in natural size.

Indeed. We noticed the same thing yesterday. When we used it yesterday this was the message “There are currently 42521 discover jobs in queue on the site. 17 of them are yours.” The first figure is normally in the 2000s.
At this moment the queued list is at 45.800+, but there are only 9 left of the 250+ that I entered yesterday and the day before.

So, obviously the tool seems to be working, but is not catching up with the speed new trackables are entered.

My explanation to the issue are big events which took part in Germany (Giga in Hamburg) and the Czech republic (Mega in Plumlov). A lot of users have collected bunch of codes and now they are trying to log them. In my opinion, the discover tool is simply overloaded and situation will impove soon when the activity of users goes down.

I recommend to authorize (or authorize just before using) the TB discovery tool. 

Had so many "Token not valid" messages. 

But after Authorization and THEN using the TB discovery tool it worked.
