The service provider confirmed a significant outage that left users unable to use the platform for about an hour. Services began resuming around 5:00 p.m. ET according to the company. LinkedIn’s status page said the company will continue investigate the issue.
"Sorry about the interruption. We're back up and running," LinkedIn wrote in an update Wednesday.
Reports of an error started shortly before 4:00 p.m. ET, according to outage platform DownDetector.
'It's not you, it's us'
Before the outage ended, LinkedIn told users they could visit their Status page to receive updates on the technical issue. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) officials wrote "It's not you, it's us."
When opening the platform users received a message that read "An error has occurred."
"We seem to have encountered an error. Try going back to the previous page or see our Help Center for more information," the message read.
Error comes after Facebook outage on Super Tuesday

Meta, which owns Facebook, blamed a "technical issue" for the social media site not functioning. Several users reported the platform logging them out of their Facebook accounts and being unable to log back in.
"Earlier today, a technical issue caused people to have difficulty accessing some of our services," Andy Stone, the director of communications for Meta, said in an X post. "We resolved the issue as quickly as possible for everyone who was impacted, and we apologize for any inconvenience."
