LinkedIn's Turn To Fall Over: Outage Hits Thinkfluencer Hub
Updated If you can't get into LinkedIn at the moment, you're not alone: The social network is unavailable due to an unexplained outage.
Visit the dotcom right now, and you'll be greeted not with stunning insights from thinkfluencers but a message saying: "An error has occurred." The site stopped working shortly before 1300 PT (2100 UTC), preventing people from logging in.
If you hit refresh a few times you might see a HTTP 500 message like the one below:
Yes, this could be a DNS screw-up. The message reads:
So far we're seeing reports of downtime from folks in Europe, and North and South America; it may well be a global outage. Downdetector.com has had a surge in complaints, with more than 43,000 in the past hour from peeps unable to tell everyone how blessed they are or scroll through posts about how teamwork makes the dream work.
The Microsoft-owned site's status page shows everything is OK, at time of writing, as does the API health monitor. Clicking through to the LinkedIn developer site and we get another error:
This comes after a multi-hour outage at Meta yesterday. ®
Updated to add at 2200 UTC
LinkedIn appears to be getting back on its feet and recovering. The status page now notes: "Some members may be experiencing issues on LinkedIn. We’re actively working on this and will provide updates as we have them. Thanks for your patience!"
