Hey @arch0345 - are you still seeing this issue?
I clicked on the link and I'm able to see both the streetside bubbles and the related images in the viewer.

Yeah, still seeing this issue. I've also been able to reproduce this on Firefox v112 (Win11) and Android 13 (Chrome/Firefox)

It looks like other people on the OSM World Discord are experiencing this issue as well:

I think MS just killed the API we (OSM) were using for MS StreetSide.

Sample API call (current Rapid): https://dev.virtualearth.net/mapcontrol/HumanScaleServices/GetBubbles.ashx?appkey=AuftgJsO0Xs8Ts4M1xZUQJQXJNsvmh3IV8DkNieCiy3tCwCUMq76-WpkrBtNAuEm&c=2000&e=-122.7732923187301&jsCallback=jsonpCache.iHAstfznwKIlokV&n=45.5058644057228&s=45.503142114175674&w=-122.77717657228884

We probably need (a) to poke Microsoft on getting or enabling our API keys for the newer API and (b) update all of the OSM applications to use their new API (iD, Rapid, JOSM).

As far as I can tell, we all use the same API key for MS StreetSide.

Yeah thats what I think too 😭
GetBubbles was always undocumented / unsupported, so I'm not totally surprised to see it go away.

It looks like the API is back up again, closing this issue

I am having issues accessing Bing imagery. This seems to happen intermittently. Are we having trouble getting authenticated again and is it worth chasing this up with the MS team?

Happens on regular iD too (and has done for a long time)
Below example happened only after uploading a changeset.
