Hootsuite: LinkedIn Outage
Timeline of updates
- resolved
We've experienced an issue where users are unable to authenticate their LinkedIn social media accounts or interact with their LinkedIn accounts within the Hootsuite platform. Kindly note this was due to a widespread outage on LinkedIn’s platform confirmed on their side here https://www.linkedin-status.com/ (opens in new tab), that began on March 6th around 1:36pm PST from when their status page reported this outage. Resolution Notes: Publishing services. Any failed messages that did not send during this downtime can be sent manually or re-scheduled. This may have affected posts from March 6th, between the times 1pm PST- 2:05pm PST. Authentication services. Connecting new LinkedIn accounts to Hootsuite or reconnecting existing LinkedIn accounts in Hootsuite should go through as expected. Streams services. LinkedIn streams should be populating content as expected.
