    The X API (both OAuth 2.0 and 1.0a) appears to be functional. We are continuing to monitor this service.

    The X (formerly Twitter) API is experiencing issues. Users attempting to sign in with X may see an ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error.

    This appears to be an undocumented X API outage affecting OAuth 2.0. X developers report that OAuth 1.0a is still functional. As a workaround, you can set up OAuth 1.0a by creating an X Developer account and adding your X API OAuth 1.0a credentials to the Privy dashboard.
