Twitter’s Website Was Down With API Access Errors In The Longest Outage Of Elon Musk Era
Update 9;48 Twitter’s services appear to be restored
Twitter’s website was down for about an hour this morning. Attempting to access the home page of Twitter.com returned an error suggesting that “your current API plan does not include access to this endpoint.” The Twitter app, however, appeared to be mostly functioning, though with some errors: all links failed, with the same error message.
The outage-tracking website downforeveryoneorjustme says the problems began before 9AM Pacific this morning.
Twitter has gone down with an error message indicating that the issue is API access.

Twitter recently closed API access for multiple companies using it to send and read tweets. It’s unclear at this point if the current problem is related. Twitter also cut 10% of its workforce, possibly related to Esther Crawford (prominent product leader), who famously supported the many Elon Musk changes.
