    Microsoft has not published a verified restoration time for the current Microsoft 365 service issue as of November 12, 2026; monitor the incident in Microsoft 365 Service health for the latest recovery status and estimates.^1^

    Check the latest status

    • Microsoft 365 administrator: Sign in to the Microsoft 365 admin center, then select Health > Service health > Active issues Microsoft is working on. Open the relevant incident to see its status, affected services, latest update, and any estimated recovery information.
    • Unable to access the admin center: Use the public Microsoft service-health page.
    • Not an administrator: Ask your organization’s Microsoft 365 administrator for the incident update. Service Support and Helpdesk administrators can also view Service health.
    • Microsoft also publishes information about certain widespread incidents through @MSFT365Status on X.^2^

    A Restoring service status means Microsoft is applying corrective action; Service restored means Microsoft has confirmed that the service is healthy again. Until the incident details show an estimated recovery time, a specific restoration time cannot be confirmed.^2^

    “Microsoft servers” covers many separate services, so Windows, Azure, Outlook, Teams, and Microsoft 365 might not recover simultaneously. Check the incident’s Affected services field for the products relevant to you.

    Hi @ELANGO PUNN,

    According to Microsoft's notification (Incident ID: MO1550821), users may be unable to connect to or access multiple Microsoft 365 services, including Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint Online, Microsoft Copilot, and Microsoft Defender XDR.

    User's image

    Microsoft has identified that the affected infrastructure is experiencing elevated load across multiple regions, which is likely contributing to the connectivity errors. Microsoft is currently restarting and repairing impacted portions of the infrastructure to restore capacity. Additionally, they are investigating an unexpected increase in a specific type of service traffic and evaluating options to redirect traffic to alternative infrastructure to expedite recovery.

    The incident is currently classified as Service Degradation, and Microsoft is actively investigating and working to mitigate the issue.

    If you have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, you can review Microsoft's service health advisory and follow the latest updates directly through this incident link.

    User's image

    If you're an end user without admin permissions, kindly reach out to your Microsoft 365 administrator and ask them to monitor this incident and keep you informed of any relevant updates.

    Please kindly note that this is a user-to-user support forum, and I’m an end user just like you, not a member of the product team. As such, I’m unable to directly influence or expedite the resolution, nor can I provide a confirmed timeline for when the issue will be fully resolved and all services will return to normal. However, please rest assured that the relevant teams are working hard to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

    I sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding. Hopefully, Microsoft will be able to resolve this issue soon so that we can all regain normal access to the affected services.
