Slack users have been hindered from logging in or sending messages since last night. The messaging app is slowly coming back online.
Unable to send messages with Slack this morning? Slack has been experiencing a major outage since last night is still recovering from it. Through its status page, Slack is providing live updates on the outage.
Reports from Downdetector show that the outage began around 5 p.m. last night in our time zone. Users could no longer send or receive messages or even log in at all. The login issues are gone and most functionality restored, but Slack reports that there may still be problems with messaging, yet the app’s most important functionality. Api integrations with external apps have also not yet been fixed.
Since the corona pandemic, business communication platforms such as Slack have gained importance. Failures at Slack impact collaboration when employees work hybrid. However, Slack is struggling to win the competition from Microsoft Teams.
