Microsoft is investigating a second outage affecting Microsoft Teams users across North and South America in the last three days.
"We're investigating an issue in which users may be unable to access Microsoft Teams or features within North America, Canada, and Brazil," Microsoft said via the company's official Microsoft 365 status account on X. Teams users affected by these ongoing issues can find more information in an incident report tagged as TM710900 in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
"Some users may be unable to access Microsoft Teams or some features," the company says in the incident report.
Microsoft has yet to update its service health page for the Teams consumer service, which says, "Everything is up and running."
While Microsoft addressed the issue behind the Friday outage within roughly 12 hours since it was acknowledged, customers were still reporting experiencing problems including delays in receiving messages and Teams clients crashing.
Microsoft Teams outage causes connection issues, message delays.
