The peak of problems occurred around 09:00 in the morningItalian time, reporting a sudden blackout in the services offered by Canva. The official note issued by the Canva team, published at 16:50 (Sydney time), explains:
We are aware of a problem that prevents users from accessing canvas, causing timeout errors during loading. Our team of engineers is actively working to solve the problem as quickly as possible.
Canva, therefore, claims that the problem is generated by an error that blocks access to content due to a timeoutor an interruption of the loading for exceeding the foreseen limit time. In practice, the system cannot establish a stable connection within a pre -established time, thus blocking access or interaction with the platform.
