The users of the microblogging site Twitter reported issues across the globe on Monday. 

Thousands of users reported issues with accessing links from the Elon Musk-headed social media platform to other websites. Meanwhile, the Internet observatory NetBlocks said that the issue was due to the affecting image and content too.

"Confirmed: Twitter is currently experiencing international slowdowns and outages affecting many users, also impacting image and video content; incident not related to country-level internet disruptions or filtering #TwitterDown," NetBlocks tweeted.

According to Downdetector, which tracks outages by collating status reports from a number of sources, including user-submitted errors on its platform, a total of 8,000 people reported issues with the working of the social media platform.

Soon after Twitter suffered a technical snag, Netizens complained of being unable to access tweets of other users, with a message reading, "Your current API plan does not include access to this endpoint, please see https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api for more information".

The phrase "Twitter API" began trending as soon as the issue began affecting users.

In a tweet, Twitter said that some parts of the microblogging website may not be working as expected right now.

"Some parts of Twitter may not be working as expected right now. We made an internal change that had some unintended consequences. We’re working on this now and will share an update when it’s fixed."

However, almost an hour later, Twitter support informed users in a tweet that the social media platform must be working normally.

Things should now be working as normal. Thanks for sticking with us!
