More info: As a result of our initial fix deployment, users are now able to run run-only workflows through the "workflows" button in Microsoft Teams. However, running run-only workflows by hovering and selecting "More actions" > "Create workflows" is still an impacted scenario.
Affected users are unable to run workflows in Teams when those workflows are configured to be executed by designated users without requiring those users to own or edit the workflow. Users receive the following error message:
"Missing Trigger URI"
As a workaround, impacted users can be granted Owner or Co-owner permissions for the affected workflow.
Current status: Our efforts to validate a secondary fix to remediate the issue in full are ongoing, and we’ll provide a resolution timeline once available.
Scope of impact: Users attempting to run run-only workflows from Microsoft Teams may be impacted. This section may be updated as the investigation progresses.
Start time: Tuesday, June 30, 2026, at 7:00 AM UTC
Root cause: A recent service update introduced a code regression that affects how Microsoft Teams processes shared workflow requests, preventing some users from running run-only workflows from Microsoft Teams.

Last Updated:Sat Sep 19 02:17:11 2026
Root Cause:A configuration update unintentionally reduced request-processing limits for some Microsoft 365 Copilot workloads below the levels needed to handle normal traffic. As a result, some valid requests were throttled or could not complete. The change significantly reduced the effective request-processing quota for affected model and scenario combinations, including GPT-5.5 chat and GPT-5.6 reasoning, from the expected production level to 100 requests per minute.

Description:Title: Users may have been unable to access or may have encountered issues when interacting with Microsoft 365 Copilot
User impact: Users may have been unable to access or may have encountered issues when interacting with Microsoft 365 Copilot.
More info: Users who were encountering issues were encouraged to try an alternate model to avoid impact while our investigation was ongoing.
Affected Microsoft 365 Copilot features and services included, but were not limited to the following: - Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat - Microsoft 365 Copilot Notebooks - Researcher in Microsoft 365 Copilot - Copilot agents and custom agents - Microsoft 365 Copilot in Word - Microsoft 365 Copilot in Excel - Microsoft 365 Copilot in PowerPoint - Microsoft Copilot Studio
Final status: We've completed extended monitoring of the service and confirmed through telemetry that all previously affected Microsoft 365 Copilot features and services have recovered and are operating within expected parameters. We've observed healthy request success rates and service performance across impacted workloads.
Scope of impact: Any users served through affected sections of infrastructure may have been impacted when attempting to access or interact with Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Start time: Friday, September 11, 2026, 3:45 AM UTC
End time: Friday, September 11, 2026, 10:16 AM UTC
Root cause: A configuration update unintentionally reduced request-processing limits for some Microsoft 365 Copilot workloads below the levels needed to handle normal traffic. As a result, some valid requests were throttled or could not complete. The change significantly reduced the effective request-processing quota for affected model and scenario combinations, including GPT-5.5 chat and GPT-5.6 reasoning, from the expected production level to 100 requests per minute.
As normal production traffic entered the request admission layer, a large volume of requests was rejected before reaching downstream AI processing services. The failures surfaced primarily as scenario-level HTTP 429 throttling, which caused elevated request failures and retries across multiple Microsoft 365 Copilot experiences.
We restored the affected quota configuration and continued monitoring recovery across the impacted scenarios. After the quota rollback, traffic volumes returned toward expected levels, but the sudden return of traffic required additional traffic-routing and capacity rebalancing with a dependent AI processing service. Following those optimizations, service telemetry showed request success rates, latency, and overall platform health returning to expected operating thresholds, with no ongoing indication of customer impact.
Next steps: - For a more comprehensive list of next steps and actions, please refer to the Post Incident Report document.
We'll provide a preliminary Post-Incident Report within two business days and a final Post-Incident Report within five business days.

As part of this, the new data center needed to be added to the Azure Traffic Manager (ATM) set-up in preparation for when it was ready to go live.
A code bug in the configuration and subsequent miss in the review process resulted in the bad rollout file that was published to ATM. This resulted in inadvertently overwriting/replacing the existing full EMEA configuration that included all the existing data centers which were handling traffic, rather than being extended on top of the existing configuration. This meant that the service removed all the existing data centers from the ATM set-up for Presence and just left the newly added region, which was not in an operational state yet. As such, there were no reachable endpoints for Presence-related requests.
Since Azure Front Door (AFD) has caching for last known good DNS endpoints, we had some protection for client-side presence scenarios and only when a user’s caches expired would they have seen impact.

Description:Title: Users may be unable to sign in to OneNote using iOS devices
User impact: Users may be unable to sign in to OneNote using iOS devices.
More info: Impact is specific to users with OneNote build 16.112.717.0 or higher.
Whilst we work on remediation, impacted users may be able to utilize OneNote on the web or remove Authenticator so that authentication falls back to the in-app webview. Users may also be able to sign in to any other Microsoft 365 apps first (e.g. PowerPoint), then attempt to sign in again in OneNote.
Current status: We've identified that additional testing and validations are required in order to ensure the issue is resolved without adversely impacting other aspects of the service. We've halted the release, and we're deploying it to our internal testing environment for additional validation before releasing it to the app store. Once our validations are complete, we'll aim to provide a new timeline for when we expect the deployment to be available in the App store.

Time:Fri Sep 4 12:05:15 2026
Description:Title: Users may experience delays sending and receiving email messages from external domains in Exchange Online
User impact: Users may have experienced a delay in sending and receiving email messages from external domains in Exchange Online.
More info: Users may have experienced intermittent “Server busy” errors, affecting multiple mailboxes.
Depending on the client, the service should attempt to periodically retry sending the email previously impacted by the issue. If the initial sender received an NDR after 24-72 hours (different clients or email providers can vary), they will need to send a new email.
Final status: We've confirmed that the issue is resolved after an extended period of monitoring, and receiving additional confirmations from previously impacted organizations.
Scope of impact: This issue impacted users who may have been attempting to send and receive email messages from external domains in Exchange Online.
Start time: Friday, September 4, 2026, at 9:00 AM UTC
End time: Friday, September 4, 2026, at 3:15 PM UTC
Root cause: Exchange Online leverages some Microsoft Defender for Office 365 data, along with a multitude of other data sources, for some of its anti-spam features.
An upstream distributed data platform experienced elevated service load after a recent change increased the size of read requests beyond the intended physical thresholds. This caused high latency and instability within the platform, which resulted in time windows where portions of the source data were unavailable to dependent processing jobs.
One of the sender-based reputation processing jobs continued to run with substantially less input data than expected and still reported successful completions. Because the pipeline did not have a sufficiently strong completeness check before publishing its output, the reduced data set was incorporated into the reputation information used by the mail-protection service.
This resulted in incomplete reputation-based data and caused legitimate sending IP addressed to be assigned overly restrictive limits by a volume-based reputation control. When the limits were reached, affected emails were throttled and temporarily deferred with ‘451 4.7.500 Server Busy’ responses.
Next Steps: - For a more comprehensive list of next steps and actions, please refer to the Post Incident Report document.
We'll provide a preliminary Post-Incident Report within two business days and a final Post-Incident Report within five business days.

Description:Title: Some users may see various issues with sharing of Agent Builders in Microsoft 365 Copilot Studio
User impact: Users may have seen various issues with sharing of Agent Builders in Copilot Studio.
More info: In the "Share dialog", the operation appeared to complete successfully, but the share targets weren't actually saved. Users you added didn't gain access, and users you removed may have kept it. Since sharing looked successful, impacted users may not have noticed it until later, when added or removed people didn't persist in the shared-users list.
Specifically, impact happened only if the agent's knowledge sources included a SharePoint Online site that was added from the grounding menu. Agents without such a source were not affected.
While the initial fix prevented any new agents from entering the impacted state, affected users may have been able to perform the following steps for agents that were already impacted:
1) Open the affected agent and remove the SharePoint site knowledge source (keep all other knowledge/media sources).
2) Re-add the SharePoint site. (if doesn't work remove and re-add) Retry Share and confirm the intended users now appear in the shared-users list.
Final status: We've confirmed that the secondary fix is deployed to clean up agents that were affected throughout the duration of this event has completed development, and after monitoring service health metrics, we've confirmed that the associated failures have ceased and the impact has been remediated by our actions.
Scope of impact: Some users utilizing Agent Builders in Copilot Studio may have been impacted.

TM1437780 - Some users may be unable to join or create Microsoft Teams meetings or calls

Feature Group:Teams Components
Classification:incident
Last Updated:Wed Sep 2 22:45:12 2026
Root Cause:The incident was triggered during the rollback of a Cosmos DB configuration designed to help limit the impact of failures and prevent wider service disruptions in one of the Teams services. As part of a precautionary investigation into a potential issue with this configuration, the feature was disabled in the APAC region. During the rollback, a subset of data partitions experienced a temporary service inconsistency for approximately 23 minutes, which resulted in intermittent request failures. As dependent services and client applications attempted to recover from these failures, request volumes increased significantly and created an unexpected surge in traffic across several platform services. The elevated traffic levels placed substantial pressure on service infrastructure, leading to broader service degradation and impacting some calling and meeting scenarios. The issue gradually self-resolved as platform scaling and traffic-management mechanisms automatically adjusted to absorb the increased demand. While service was restored without additional customer action, there are follow-up repair items to further strengthen resilience and reduce the likelihood of similar incidents in the future.

More info: According to our impact analysis, the following scenarios were among those most impacted: -Recordings and Transcriptions -1:1 Calling -Group calling -Meeting join -Meeting scheduling and creation -Public switched telephone network (PSTN) calls
Final status: After a recursive analysis of additional metrics, we've observed persistent recovery across all previously affected scenarios. Closer analysis identified a recent change associated with our ongoing service resilience efforts which overloaded our traffic management processes and caused impact. The service is now restored; however, users whose calls and meetings were previously affected may need to end and restart those calls and meetings to see full recovery.
Scope of impact: Any Microsoft Teams users in the Asia-Pacific region may have been impacted when attempting to create or join meetings or calls.
Start time: Friday, July 24, 2026, at 12:25 AM UTC
End time: Friday, July 24, 2026, at 1:27 AM UTC
Root cause: The incident was triggered during the rollback of a Cosmos DB configuration designed to help limit the impact of failures and prevent wider service disruptions in one of the Teams services. As part of a precautionary investigation into a potential issue with this configuration, the feature was disabled in the APAC region. During the rollback, a subset of data partitions experienced a temporary service inconsistency for approximately 23 minutes, which resulted in intermittent request failures. As dependent services and client applications attempted to recover from these failures, request volumes increased significantly and created an unexpected surge in traffic across several platform services. The elevated traffic levels placed substantial pressure on service infrastructure, leading to broader service degradation and impacting some calling and meeting scenarios. The issue gradually self-resolved as platform scaling and traffic-management mechanisms automatically adjusted to absorb the increased demand. While service was restored without additional customer action, there are follow-up repair items to further strengthen resilience and reduce the likelihood of similar incidents in the future.
Next steps: - For a more comprehensive list of next steps and actions, please refer to the Post Incident Review document.
We'll provide a preliminary Post-Incident Report within two business days and a final Post-Incident Report within five business days.

Description:A post-incident report has been published.

Time:Wed Aug 26 05:14:27 2026
Description:Title: Guest users were unable to access SharePoint Online sites connected to Microsoft Teams
User impact: Guest users were unable to access SharePoint Online sites connected to Microsoft Teams.
More info: Specifically, guest users were redirected to an AccessDenied.aspx page when attempting to access SharePoint Online sites where access is granted through Microsoft 365 Groups.
As a potential workaround, admins could have manually add affected guest users directly to the SharePoint Members group instead of relying on Microsoft 365 Group membership propagation.
Final status: We've completed a period of monitoring service telemetry, and we've observed the restoration of service availability to normal levels. Additionally, during this time, we've received multiple reports from previously affected customers that they're experiencing relief from impact, and as such, we've determined this incident is resolved.
Scope of impact: This issue could have impacted any guest users attempting to access SharePoint Online sites where access is granted through Microsoft 365 Groups.
Start time: Thursday, August 20, 2026, at 7:30 AM UTC
End time: Tuesday, August 25, 2026, at 12:47 PM UTC
Root cause: A change was made to significantly reduce request latency across almost all SPO requests by optimizing how the Dynamic Claims system retrieves and caches information through asynchronous tasks.
There was a latent bug within the initial Dynamic Claims flow where the service checks if the organization allows guest users for M365 group memberships. The pre-check did not force App-only credential requests to MS Graph and instead relied on the absence of user context in the thread to make the call app-only. This worked previously because the user context was not correctly propagated. However, in the new asynchronous tasks, the user context was correctly propagated, and this resulted in the failure to obtain the relevant token due to the service classifying the request as App+user. In this scenario, the service logic failed silently and put an empty value (i.e. the user is not a member of any M365 group) into the Dynamic Claims cache. This resulted in Dynamic Claims refresh call to fail for guest users and then being rejected from accessing the resources.
The issue was not detected by our monitoring systems in our early deployment rings (Microsoft’s internal organization etc.), as traffic for guest users is a small fraction of the overall dynamic traffic in these environments and therefore monitoring alerting thresholds were not met.
Next steps: - For a more comprehensive list of next steps and actions, please refer to the Post Incident Report document.
We'll provide a preliminary Post-Incident Report within two business days and a final Post-Incident Report within five business days.
