Microsoft said Tuesday that it was investigating outages affecting office applications and services.
"We’re currently investigating access issues and degraded performance with multiple Microsoft 365 services and features," Microsoft said on X. "More information can be found under MO842351 in the admin center."
The outage appeared to be affecting all of its regions worldwide. One affected retailer was Starbucks. A spokesperson said that customers briefly lost access to some features in the company's mobile app but that everything was back up and running by Tuesday afternoon.
"Earlier today, some customers were briefly unable to access the mobile order and pay feature in the Starbucks app due to a third-party system outage," the spokesperson said in an emailed statement. "We’re happy to share that functionality for ordering ahead has largely been restored and customers are able to continue using the feature in the app."
The cause of the outage was unclear. Microsoft said in an update just before 11 a.m. ET that some services were beginning to return.
