Batch API Job stuck in PENDING state for over 26 hours

Gemini API
1

Hi everyone,

I am currently experiencing an issue with the Gemini Batch API where my job has been stuck in the PENDING state for over 26 hours.

Typically, my batch jobs are completed within 2 to 3 hours. Therefore, this delay is quite unusual and concerning, especially since it has exceeded the 24-hour target.

Details of the stuck job:

  • Model: gemini-3-pro-preview

  • Job Creation Time: 2026-01-07T03:35:56Z

  • Job Resource Name (ID): batches/fl2n2q8e3kxgj3w48ikbx33y09aop34q6nxw

  • Region: asia-northeast3 (Seoul)

I have checked my quota and I am well within the limits. Is there currently a known outage or a delay with the Batch API queue in this region?

Any advice or updates from the Google team would be appreciated.

Thanks.
