Microsoft is investigating an ongoing and widespread outage blocking access to some Microsoft 365 and Azure services.
“We’re currently investigating access issues and degraded performance with multiple Microsoft 365 services and features. More information can be found under MO842351 in the admin center,” Redmond said.
However, many users report having issues connecting to the Microsoft 365 admin center and opening the Service Health Status page, which should provide real-time information on issues impacting Microsoft Azure and the Microsoft 365/Power Platform admin centers.
For the moment, the company says this incident is only affecting users in Europe and only a subset of its services.
“We are investigating reports of issues connecting to Microsoft services globally. Customers may experience timeouts connecting to Azure services,” Redmond says on the Azure status page.
“We have multiple engineering teams engaged to diagnose and resolve the issue. More details will be provided as soon as possible.”
Since the start of this outage roughly one hour ago, Downdetector has also received hundreds of reports, with affected users experiencing Outlook connection problems, issues connecting to Microsoft 365 websites, and various other issues like Entra and Power Apps being down.
Despite Microsoft’s ongoing investigation, the Office service health and the Microsoft 365 network health status pages currently show no issues with Microsoft’s network and availability, the customer’s network infrastructure, or internet service provider availability.
