Microsoft investigates outage affecting Microsoft 365 admin center

This is the second time this week that Remond has had to mitigate an issue blocking access to the Microsoft 365 admin center, with the company confirming another similar incident on Thursday, following customer reports of server errors when trying to connect to the portal. In January, Redmond mitigated another outage, tagged as a critical service issue, that blocked login attempts and prevented users and administrators from accessing certain Microsoft 365 services and the admin center. One month earlier, a Microsoft 365 outage took down the Office web apps and the admin center, causing customers to see "We're experiencing a service outage" messages when attempting to access their Microsoft 365 apps via a web browser. "Any admin served through the affected section of service infrastructure in the Eastern US region attempting to access the Microsoft 365 admin center may have been unable to do so," Microsoft said. Microsoft is investigating an ongoing outage blocking Microsoft 365 administrators with business or enterprise subscriptions from accessing the admin center. "Microsoft is investigating a potential issue that may be preventing administrators from accessing the Microsoft 365 admin center," the company explains. While the company has yet to disclose which regions are currently affected by this ongoing service degradation issue, it's currently tracking it on its official service health status page to provide impacted organizations with access to up-to-date information.
