Issue ID: TM1022107
Affected services: Microsoft Teams
Status: Service restored
Issue type: Incident
Start time: Mar 3, 2025, 9:46 AM MST
End time: Mar 3, 2025, 1:19 PM MST

User impact
Users may not have been able to receive calls placed through Microsoft Teams provisioned auto attendants and call queues

More info
Callers routed through call queues may have heard a busy signal or the call may have rung for 45+ seconds and then ended.

Scope of impact
Users who expected to make or receive calls routed through Microsoft Teams provisioned auto attendants and call queues may have been affected.

Preliminary root case
A configuration change to an auto-attendant app ID record that matches inbound calls with users in call queues was preventing users from receiving calls and caused the impact.
Next steps
- We’re reviewing our testing and validation processes to understand how the impact of the configuration change wasn’t identified prior to implementation so that we can improve our testing and validation procedures and avoid similar issues in the future.
We'll provide a preliminary Post-Incident Report within two business days and a final Post-Incident Report within five business days.
